Lake Central High School 8400 Wicker Ave. St. John, IN 46373 (219) 365-8551 Volume 22 Population 2,180 One Tubular Summer Summer was filled with sports that were varied with each student’s interests. Some students spent their summer vacations splashing over waves while enjoying the outrageous sport of tubing. Students tubed either at Lake Michigan or at a private lake. Most of the students who went tubing in Michigan stayed at cottages along the lakefront. A junior said that tubing was surprisingly fun; “tubing was great, but the next day I was sorry because 1 was so sore.” When asked what her most embarrassing moment was she said, “Well, when I got sucked through the middle of the tube; it seemed like I was sucked in like a vacuum, but I have to tell you, 1 couldn’t stop laughing.” Tubing to Jay Grisafi, 12, was “a whole different feeling. It was great, but it was pretty embarrassing when my shorts fell off.” It turned out that tubing proved to be quite a fun sport for some students. Just a Locker? Many students decorated their lock¬ ers to brighten their day in between classes. In many decorated lockers, pictures, magazine photos, and mirrors were often found; but in the more out of the ordinary lockers, magnets, stickers, and balloons added pizazz. Racing Against the Rapids With summer’s rushing waves and cool streams came the excitement of canoeing. Kim Villarreal, 10, compet¬ ed in a six-hour canoe race down the rapid waters of the Iroquois River. “It was very cold, and occasionally my ca¬ noe got stuck in the rocks, and I had to get out and push,” said Villarreal. In the middle of the race the rain poured down, and visibility was almost zero. “The canoe filled about half way, and I even had to stop under a bridge so I wouldn’t sink,” said Villarreal. “In the end all of us competed against the rain instead of with each other.” Pets Are the Driving Force of LC Students You come home after a long day at school, twenty pounds of fur pounces at your feet, jumps into your lap, and greets you with a few licks on your face Pets are an impor¬ tant part to a lot of peo¬ ple’s lives. They bring love and help relieve loneliness. They can be a faithful companion throughout the years. Kathy Huls, 10, said, “I think my dog is ador¬ able. I could never get used to it not being here. It’s so easy to love.” Maribeth Jazyk, 12, added, “Sometimes my dog can be a lot of trou¬ ble, but most of the time I like having her around because she helps me smile when I feel down.” {When my dog died, I was really upset. I had loved her for ten years, and I really miss her. I want to get a puppy just like my old dog,} said Su¬ zanne Rose, 11. Summers Spent at Camps Many students went to camps over summer vacation either for a particular sport, activity, or just for fun. While some students attended camps to learn or develop new skills for their sport or academic activity, others preferred camps just to relax. Aches and pains were the price some students paid for the love of their sport. Basketball players, cheerleaders and runners were just a few athletes who attended sports camps. While at camp students just beginning a new sport discovered the hard work and ef¬ fort which was needed for daily prac¬ tices but, previous athletes knew the difficulty, and therefore went prepared with sports gels and knee and ankle braces. Shortness of breath, aching muscles, and near exhaustion were not so fun experiences for the unfit camp¬ ers. To achieve success some individuals worked many hours practicing before and during camp. Michelle Aldrich, 10, said, “My cheerleading squad pre¬ pared three months for camp, and it paid off when we won second place in our division.” Summer camps were often accom¬ panied with the start of friendships. “Camp was the best; I learned a lot, and I met a lot of new friends,” said Kristi Sikora. 11. 2 Outrageous! Winds Wreck Havoc August 13, 7:20 p.m., the weather in Dyer suddenly changed. The wind ferociously blew as rain slashed against the windows. Visibility was zero For the first time in decades. Dyer exper¬ ienced a tornado. Some police reports claimed a few trees were uprooted and were hanging from telephone wires. The power remained out for five hours, and several streets, such as 213th where the tornado hit, flooded. “There were huge tree branches every¬ where,” said Kellean Barron, 10. “A house was even hit by a falling tree. The wind was so awful that trees bended almost horizontally. The next day our yard was covered with tree limbs, leaves, and stuff from other people’s yards. The storm was really bad,” added Barron. 4 Photon is a pret¬ ty neat game. It probably won’t last too long be¬ cause it’s a fad, but for now it’s fun to play. It also helps people re¬ lease their frustra¬ tions, 9 said Don Orban, 11. It’s the New Rage of the Age: It’s Photon! Say good-bye to the eighties; it’s time to enter a new dimension. This dimension is the new rage of the age: It’s Photon. Move over sling shots and cap guns, laser tag is moving in. It is the new wave sweeping across LC. “It’s pretty wild! The first time I played I got hooked, now I’m a fanatic,” stated Chuck Noojin, 11, about his feelings toward Photon. When entering Photon, it is like stepping into a new generation. The real world vanishes from the photon warrior’s mind. The mission begins to rule: Take the enemy base. The warrior scrambles across the mazes trying to collect points as he shoots enemy intruders. The excitement builds as the warrior moves stealthily through the maize toward the enemy base, shooting enemy intruders that he faces. Points are accumulating. Beginning with 1000, the warrior now has 1300. After six and a half minutes, the lights start flashing and the maneuver ends. The warrior returns to his home base. The real world starts to exist in his mind once again. Fireworks Festival Fireworks lit up the sky over the foot¬ ball field on the Fourth of July. As a tradi¬ tion the festivities contained a musical por¬ tion before the fireworks. People ranging from babies to grandparents came to watch the event. “The fireworks were in¬ credible. Actually, I had a great time just seeing all of my friends,” said Kristi Si- kora, 11. 4Having musical announcements makes more peo¬ ple listen to what is being said. They’re great, 9 said Shelly Hor¬ ton, 11. Musical Mornings Coffee club performed the first rockin’ an¬ nouncement of the year to the feature song of the hit summer movie, “La Bamba.” Whether these announcements were accompanied by hit songs or by cartoon character’s voices, the an nouncing of Grandma’s casserole was interest¬ ing. This change of pace really helped some tired students. Good-bye Lazy Daze Starting the school year meant saying good-bye to beaches, carnivals, and outdoor concerts. As the school year began some students looked forward to the first day off school for Labor Day on Monday, September 7. Labor Day meant one of the last few days for students to enjoy the sun and fun of sum¬ mer vacation. Once school started some of the long summer nights shortened, sleeping hours were adjusted, and free time became scarce through the week. “The hardest part of starting school was having to wake up so early and get ready,” said Jasna Kara- gic, 11. As the work started piling up, thoughts of fall break popped into some students’ minds. For some students holidays meant just another day off, but for many, holidays symbolized a special day for fun, relaxation, or a combination of both. “The best thing about each day of school is that it gets closer and closer to graduation and to summer vacation,” said Billy Bednar, 12. Outrageous! 3 WHAT’S THE ALL ABOUT? Outrageousness? Outrageousness was the first day of hysteria as 2,180 students went out of their minds trying to open lock¬ ers, find classrooms, and be reunited with friends. Outrageousness was teachers run¬ ning out of patience controlling the excite¬ ment of the first day. Everywhere, every¬ one, out of breath and out of energy, thought “Outrageous!” As freshmen looked over their shoulders with a sense of paranoia, and seniors groaned with anticipation of their final year, outbursts of activity buzzed throughout the halls. New school outfits and bright faces filled the classroom. After discussing sum¬ mer outdoor fun, students found them¬ selves back to the serious outlooks on sub¬ jects and sports. “Outrageous!” commented a few stu¬ dents after reading the new Rules of Con¬ duct and Student Behavior. No longer would teachers tolerate tardiness, crude re¬ marks, or “rebels without a cause.” Stu¬ dents who tried to outfox teachers by ditch¬ ing or truancies found themselves staring at the study hall walls after school. Going out of their way to avoid sudden fights or foul stenches of science experi¬ ments, students hustled through the crowd¬ ed halls. An extra one-minute bell was add¬ ed to warn everyone that their time was almost out. Students were enraged to find out all snow days had to be made up during vaca¬ tions. And wouldn’t you just know it? Dur¬ ing the second week of school a fog delay was issued! Clearing out traffic after school became less of a problem. The back road was opened at the beginning and end of school hours. On the first day, this left many stu¬ dents wandering around the parking lot try¬ ing to find out where their bus was parked. It was to be a year of change, for better or for worse, by Lisa Pasko Unlucky Day Off School It was hard for some students to get out of their warm beds on those cold winter mornings. A new Indi¬ ana state law was passed this year stating that all regularly scheduled school days that were called off be cause of snow, fog, etc., must be made up. “I would rather go to school on a cold day in winter in¬ stead of making up a day in the sum¬ mer,” said Jason Traina, 10. Because of this law, for every “extra” day off school, a day from one of the scheduled vacations was to be taken away. “Every student looks forward to winter because of snow days, but because of the new rule, snow days are not worth look¬ ing forward to,” said Susan So- banski, 11. The once looked forward to snow days became feared by some stu¬ dents because they dreaded the thought of more school in the sum¬ mer. The day when more students would rather go to school was close to arriving. {The best part of an Indiana winter is sledding with 15 friends after a foot of snow had fallen. Since I lived down south for two years, I really love when it snows, snows, snows! 5 said Tina Bitner, 11 . Final Countdown “Out of the way!” someone yells, while run¬ ning down the hall. The new warning bell rang a few seconds ago and a hall full of students rush through the halls to get to their next class. Many students fell, tripped, and got walked on or over because of the rush. Though the new one-minute bell did help students to realize how much time they had, it did cause an outrageous frenzy. {Because the halls are so crowded, they appear to look somewhat like a floor of the New York Stock Ex¬ change. It’s hard to make it to class on time,} said Steve Neel, 11. A New and Easier Way Home National Law Hits LC Driving to and from school became a little less hectic this year with the re-open¬ ing of the back road. Brian Nutini, 12, said, “I’m glad they opened the back road. It was a real waste having it there and not being able to use it.” By allowing the back road to be used the traffic in and out of LC seemed to move a little more smoothly. Students who lived behind LC discovered they did not have to leave so early anymore since they no longer had to enter the school by way of Wicker Ave. It proved to be a real time saver. Freedom of the press developed a new meaning in high schools. The Supreme Court passed a nationwide law stating that any student writing can be censored by principals, administrators, or school board mem¬ bers. “I think the censorship law is really hampering the rights of the students, since school is supposed to be preparing us for the ’real world’, why should we have someone censoring our writing—that’s being very hypocritical,” said Deanna Csomo, 11. In journalism the learning process did involve cen¬ sorship by the advisor, so some students questioned why someone else would have to check their writing. Because of this law, some students felt that their con¬ stitutional rights were taken away. 4 Delivering flowers and bal¬ loons does dis¬ turb class, but so does bringing passes. If they are trying to stop interrup¬ tions, they should stop all of them,} said Phil Ladd, 12. Indiana State Law Changes Fundraisers Interruption of classes for reasons other than aca¬ demically related was outlawed. A new Indiana state law was passed stating that classes could no longer be disturbed. Fundraisers became limited because of this law. Classes could not be interrupted by students deliver¬ ing balloons and flowers. Clubs that depended on the money from these sales had to find new ways of raising money. This law disappointed some students because they could no longer send messages to that special someone. Pictures were also affected by this law. School pictures had to be taken during summer at registra¬ tion because students were not allowed to leave class. Another problem arose when it was time to take club pictures. Group pictures had to be taken during club periods. The rule concerning fundraisers in school was enforced even more. Students were not permitted to sell candy during class time. This new law temporar¬ ily hurt the funds of some clubs, but one way or another they managed to overcome this obstacle. Many changes and adjustments had to be made by students and clubs. Working until the last minute of class was well known. As Snow Comes Falling Down Snow is what every little kid wishes for so he can go sledding or make a snowman. But as that little kid grows up, he discovers that snow doesn’t mean all fun and games. With the first snowfall this year, students found that scraping car win¬ dows and driving extra carefully were not very fun. Many students’ cars would not start, and then if the car did start the trick was getting out of the parking lot. Jenny Brink, 11, stated, “The first few days driving on the ice and snow was pretty nerve racking, but I soon got used to it.” Fenderbenders were fairly com¬ mon among students. Sometimes when parking the car, it would slide the slightest bit and bump the car next to it. “I sat in first hour praying no one bumped into my car,” said Justin Sarkpy, 12. Snow, though, still contained that fun element of childhood. Many stu¬ dents hit the slopes at the Pines for an enjoyable day of skiing. Others hauled out their snowmobiles from summer storages and started parad¬ ing around the tri-town area. The avid hockey enthusiasts pulled out their skates for a pick-up game. Snow and winter still brought much fun. A Friendship Token First, it was friendship pins. Then came “BEST FRIEND” necklaces. In 1987-88, one of the hot new fad items was friendship bracelets. Friendship bracelets were, naturally, given to friends as a to¬ ken of everlasting friendship and good times. They were handmade, some with several different col¬ ors, but most with only two. Made out of embroi¬ dery floss, the strands were interwoven and tied into knots that formed a thin little strand. Friends basically chose their favorite color or whatever matched their wardrobe best. “I made a lot of them this summer,” said Tricia Giberson, 11. This rage in friendship gear complemented outfits everywhere, adding splashes of color and a little variety from the traditional bracelet. Most of the students who wore these bracelets said that they never removed the bracelet because it represented that special link of friendship. Purse Preferences Purses came in all sizes, shapes, and colors. Some girls preferred small purses to carry just the necessities like pens and pencils; but, others liked larger purses to carry calculators, brushes, and make-up. Buying a high quality purse often meant spending about $50. Tight Fit—Latest Sportswear Colorful tights were the latest trend for athletic people. Comfortable and perfectly fitted, tights were casual clothing to wear for aerobics, dancing, running, or any other exercise wor¬ kout. During the cold pre-winter weather, tights helped insulate the body and break harsh winds. Having every coio. of the rainbow or just one plain shade, tights came in original patterns, rang¬ ing from the floral look to the grass design. Tights made athletes able to move easily and to look fashionable. As one track runner said, “If you want to run good you might as well look good, too!” Tights have changed the athletic scene. Cathy Dtmovski, 11, watches as Steve Lane, 11, shows how to make a friendship bracelet. Some stu¬ dents also made friendship rings and necklaces. Runners Mia Kozel. 9, Lisa Pasko, 10, and Amy Reid, 10, said that tights helped them when they ran outside in the cold weather Tights were stylish and warm. D Lacomtw 6 Outrageous! Outrageous! 7 Rush to Lunch to Wait “Three, two, one, buzzz!” Students rush out of the class¬ rooms on their way to the cafeteria in attempt to make it to the beginning of the lunch line. For some students it was a daily challenge to reach the beginning of one of the lunch lines, while others took their time and then had to wait for over half of the lunch period to receive food. Lunch lines were often long, and to hungry students, the wait sometimes felt unbearable. “The lunch lines were like waiting at the doctor’s office; you had to wait forever,” said Wayne Collins, 11. Quite often on C-lunch students would reach the beginning of the line and the lunch or snack that he or she wanted would be gone. “The workers in the cafeteria should have had more food ready, because they couldn’t be sure how many people would buy lunch,” said Shelly Horton, 11. After a student received his lunch, he then had to face his next challenge, finding a seat. It would sometimes appear as if the cafeteria was out of seats, but after looking closely students managed to find seats. Having only a few minutes left, the students quickly finished their lunches, but the bell would ring and they were out of time. 4A Tuesday without pizza is like a day without sun¬ shine. I’d never be able to cope if they changed their routine. I can ' t handle change,} stated Joe Hegyi, 11 . Waking Up Is Hard to Do % i It’s 6:30. Your alarm went off but you sleepily turned it off and went back to sleep “on accident.” You moan, groan, and finally get out of bed. You look at the clock. Oh no! You’ve got twenty minutes to get ready! You yank your wardrobe out of the closet and throw clothes all over the place and finally find something that would be decent to wear. You dash to the shower, towel-dry your hair, and get dressed at the same time. Finally, you grab your coat and books and run for the bus gasping for breath. BUSTED! “Busted,” yelled the crowd in the lunch line as the bustee walked, embarrassed and humil¬ iated, to the end. Trying to sneak into the front of the lunch line was something many students tried. In attempt to save time waiting and spend more time eating, students would slyly move in front of a friend. “If the lines weren’t so long, then I wouldn’t have to cut in,” said Don Or- ban, 11. 41 try to put off getting up in the morning on days of school, but when the week¬ end rolls around I can’t wait to get up and start the day,} said Suzy Kirby, 10. Some lockers were just not meant to be treated nicely Many students discovered that their lockers required a little motivation before opening Waking up in the morning for school did not appeal to most LC students Mindy Sikora, 12. finds it difficult to wake up after a long night of studying X ( utrageous! never a DULL AT LC School was often associated with many problems and complaints; besides the tests and homework, the simple, but sometimes not so simple, daily tasks were at the top of some students’ complaint lists. Starting the day was difficult for many students. Although some students believed that the snooze button was one of the great¬ est inventions, others claimed that it caused more problems when trying to get up for school. Once a student was ready to leave for school he or she then had to either ride the bus, drive, or find a ride from someone else. Most of the transportation problems oc¬ curred during the winter; while the bus rid¬ ers waited in the cold and the drivers hoped that their cars would start, the other stu¬ dents relaxed in a warm house as they wait¬ ed for their rides. “Winter mornings were always interesting because I never knew if my car was going to start,’’ said Jenny Stelter, 11. Other students believed that they had more problems with their lockers. It never failed that when a student was going to be late for class his locker always seemed to jam. Some students yelled at their lockers, while others hit and kicked theirs; unfortu¬ nately, neither helped. K Sikora Many girls faced the challenged of keep¬ ing their balance while walking down the hallway. “I could always tell when the floors were just waxed because I would always slide walking down the halls,’’ said Julie Voyak, 11. Some students believed that the hardest part of school was trying to get enough sleep. “The more homework I had the less sleep I got,’’ said Dawn Sentell, 11. After a night of working on homework until 1 a.m., the following day in school was usually diffi¬ cult; trying to understand teachers while almost falling asleep was next to impossible. Although some students considered these to be unusual problems, others had to face these sometimes everyday; but, these are known as the best times of our life. by Shelley Fear K Sikora Taking the steps the hard way. Don Orban, 11, exper iences the embarrassment of tripping in front of Christy Burgess. 12, and Marianne Swanson. 11. Staying awake is not as easy as it may seem. Robyn Fricke, 11, discovers that a little nap in the library will help her cope with the rest of her classes. Outrageous? 9 EARNING TO SPEND Freedom came with money most teens agreed. Having a parttime job ate up boring hours of the day, gave financial freedom, presented an excuse to forget homework, and offered something to gripe about. Most popular among reasons for secur¬ ing a job during high school included having a scene different and away from school, keeping your wheels rolling, or buying items instead of window shopping. “The main reason why I work is to earn money for college,” said Andy Dudek, 11. Chicago was never far in the minds of those who couldn’t wait for a day off school and work so they could jump on a train and challenge the maddening crowds. Others saved for the annual Woodfield Mall trip sponsored by Pep Club and Student Gov¬ ernment, and an impressive percentage found that mail order shopping had come of age. ‘You got that from a catalog?” ques¬ tioned one outraged junior while many like Kim Hambright, 11, couldn’t wait to get home to see what came in the mail. Jobs remained the usual offered to teens: restaurants, gift shops, drug stores, and grocery stores. More fast food restau¬ rants sprang up along U.S. 41 until one marveled that grocery stores could stay sol¬ vent at all. “To ditch a da y of school is to stop and smell the roses. Many students need a day off sometime just to recover from home¬ work,” said Greg Penn, 11. Maybe the most outrageous aspect of working was the determination given to those who suddenly knew they would have to do something more meaningful in their future work years. {The policy of not being able to request home¬ work until three days are missed should be changed; home¬ work piles up too fast and it ' s hard to com¬ plete, } said Rhonda Strelec, 11 . {My friends like me for w ho I am, not what I can do for them. We have all grown up to¬ gether for 16 years, and I think we will al¬ ways be close, y said Karen Rob¬ erts, 11. Taking a Day Off BZZZZ! The alarm rattles an d vibrates in your ears. You move, and a sudden and uneasy feeling creeps through your body. Then a huge wave of queasiness wipes out what thoughts remained that you might still be healthy. No, not today, of all days, why today! you think. Why couldn’t it have been last week when you had that major exam? The one that you had no time to study for? But no, it had to be the day that you were supposed to eat lunch with the person you’ve had a crush on all year! Disgusted, you turn over and try to make the best out of being sick. After all. it’s a day off! {Having all the fast food restaurants in Schererville provides many job opportuni¬ ties for LC students, but with over 2100 students this causes much job competi¬ tion,} said Jim Becklenberg, 10. Together in Good Times and Bad If you could imagine life with¬ out friends, imagine a world where there are no parties, peo¬ ple never smile, and everyone stays home on the weekends. A world without friends would be very strange, indeed! For many students friends are one of the best things about high school. They provide not only endless hours of entertainment and good times, but they lift you up when you’re feeling blue and when times are tough. Whether it be going to the movies or just “being bored” together, friends are something that people never for¬ get during their life. 10 Outrageous! . Decisions, Decisions Selecting the right college was not always an easy decision. In order to learn more about the different colleges, many juniors and seniors partici¬ pated in the special high school programs and cam¬ pus visits. Some students said that the college hand¬ books and pamphlets could not answer all their questions concerning their career topic. Speaking with college students and faculty often helped to receive more clear and direct answers about the college and the courses that need to be taken. Many students agreed that visiting different col¬ leges helped them with their final college choice. What’s Funny? Class clowns were not always ap¬ preciated by teachers, but they some¬ times helped to brighten a student’s day. A simple joke was sometimes just the right anecdote to lift a student’s spirits. Because a class clown often gives strange but funny answers, in the future he might be seen in a box on Holly wood Squares. (On days off school I like to lock my parents in the closet and set up a black market hubcap shop in my garage; but seriously I like to just hang around with my friends, 5 said Curtis McCrary, 11. Out of School and on the Town It’s the weekend and it’s 12 noon. You have just awakened. Although some people believe that half of the day is over, you claim that it has only just begun. Weekends were not only a time for regaining lost sleep, but they were days to help relieve students from the pres¬ sures of tests and homework. Many stu¬ dents who decided to go out went to malls and movie theaters, while some preferred the latest craze at Photon. Going to Chicago often meant hop¬ ping on a train to take you to the Loop. Many students visited Water Tower Place and then walked a couple blocks to Gino’s Pizza. At Gino’s Pizza one could occasionally find an LC student’s signature on the wall. Staying home was not always the same. Students would sometimes de¬ cide to have a group of friends come over to their houses to watch movies or videos. For others weekends meant that it was time to work. Some students worked to save money for special occa¬ sions, but others preferred to keep their money for college or for a car As homework was put aside some worked for their future plans. Outrageous! 11 Who dressed you today? Green orange, pink brown, and purple red were just some of the many odd col¬ or combinations worn by stu¬ dents on clash day. Home¬ coming week meant spirit week, which also meant a time for some students to ex¬ press their true and some¬ times unusual school spirit. Many students participat¬ ed on college shirt day and dress-up day, but only those few extremely outgoing stu dents mismatched theii clothes and accessories on clash day. As the brightly dressed students paraded through the halls, spirit and laughter filled the atmo¬ sphere. They walked proudly, as if the day was like any other, classes went on as usual, but the odd stares from fellow stu¬ dents were easily noticed. {Anyone can wear a college sweatshirt or a blue-white out¬ fit, but to have real school spir¬ it, you have to go all out and be supportive of your school, 9 stated John Britton, II. LC Students Show Their Spirit How can a school of over 2,180 students show their spirit and unity? Well, LC sure has the right formula. At games LC students cheered loud¬ ly for their Indian team. They were a driving force behind the teams. John Mangold, 11, said, “We like to draw attention to ourselves so, we whip tow¬ els and scarves around to cheer for our team.” During Homecoming week, many students showed their spirit by participating in the different activities of the days. Even games at rather far distances attracted quite a good size crowd rooting the Indians on to victory. The spirit and unity of LC students reached its peak when LC experienced a power failure. Students, assembled in the fieldhouse and in the C-hall foyer, found that they were encaged. Quiet chants arose; just showing that the spir¬ it of the Indians was alive. This was their turf, and they treasured it. LC may be just a building, but the people inside are who count. They care about each other and look out for each other. {We try to act wild and crazy so we can get the fans motivated. We want them to real¬ ly get into the game,} stated Dan Horgash, 12. {Cheerleading with the guys can be a fun experience, the guys do a good job cooperat¬ ing with us; but at times it does get pretty rough,} stat¬ ed Jolie Lamott, 11.

These are the faces of senior ing ‘LCHS’ were among their most cre- guys who are football players, soccer ative and entertaining acts.

Teepeeing Bandits Strike Teepeeing is one of the more popu¬ lar pastimes of LC students. When darkness sets in, students plan their strategy Stealthily, they wrap mail¬ boxes. cars, and decorate trees with roll after roll of toilet paper. As tradition. Varsity cheerleaders teepeed the houses of senior football players on the eve of the homecoming game as a sign of good luck. “Teepee¬ ing is a great tradition, and it really raises the players’ spirit for the game,” stated Elli Reichelt, 11. Another night found many teepeers, the evening of the powder puff game. Seniors and juniors on the teams found it fun to bring the rivalry out in teepee ¬ ing. INDIAN f ITS HOT! At football games the fans went wild. Maybe the main reason was only to stay warm, but they sure stayed hot at the Burial Grounds throughout the season. Every game they yelled louder and louder and appeared to be totally psyched-up when the Indian team started winning. As usual, the fans decided flying objects were the key to being noticed. At the end of a football game, it looked as if it had snowed in the bleachers from all of the shredded paper. At the end of the third quarter, JV and Varsity cheerleaders tossed candy into the stands. Every student became wild and act¬ ed hyper trying to catch the candy. Many times the tossing of candy resulted in candy wars, and no one was safe from being hit in the head with a piece of Pals gum. But it was all in fun. What can one expect when a group of high school students get together. Football season dwindled away, and the waiting for basketball season to start began. The first basketball game was against Gary West Side and as LC fans entered the wig¬ wam, they wanted to see lots of jams and dunks. A good performance was shown and resulted in hooking the fans into coming back again and again. By the second game, the LC fans were back in the spirit groove. As the juniors claimed the top rows of bleachers at the west end of the court, they decided to rate the game. Anyone who jammed, either friend or foe, would receive a perfect score of 10, but miss an easy lay up and the player would receive a low score The Candy Toss Major league baseball games contain a seventh inning stretch, but LC football games contain some¬ thing a little different; the third quarter candy toss. As the cheerleaders grab the bags of candy and warm up their arms, some of the lazier football players on the sideline gather round, and students get ready to jump and scream and catch the flying candy. Students jumped and stretched in attempt to catch the flying candy. Kevin Graham, 9, said, “It got pretty wild in the stands when the cheerleaders started throwing the candy. I think some students just come to the game to freeload some gun.” It lasted for only a few minutes, but the excitement in the stands endured for the rest of the game. Tracey Lopez, 12, added, “It really seemed to get the students pumped up and excited. After that they were wild and crazy. When the toss ended, fans were hyped up to watch the battle on the field. of 2. John Britton, 11, commented, “It was our way of taking part in the game. We want the teams to know we are there and that we are watching their performances.” The sophomores discovered that they needed a new image. So, a group of radical sophs donned animal noses to show their spirit. Well, they sure dared to be different. Then of course there were the togas and bermuda short wearers. It did not seem to affect the Indian fans that the temperature outside was hovering around freezing. They were hot and ready for that Indian beat of defeat. But there always had to be some¬ thing to throw. Groups of seniors dominated this field by the traditional mini-marshmal¬ low wars. They were sneaky and indiscreet because it would not have been fun if they had gotten caught. As the different sport seasons came and went, the spirit of the Indian fans remained hot. They were wild and crazy at home games and at away games. The LC fans were psyched throughout the different sport seasons, and the only word to de¬ scribe those Indian fans was “Outrageous! “Outrageous” was the only word to de¬ scribe LC fans throughout the different sport seasons. As the players were on the field or court, the fans began psyching up. Not only were their chants and yells catchy, but also their actions triggered much excitement. As usual, the first few games of the seasons the freshmen tried to establish themselves as free spirits. They learned quickly that they were not top ba¬ nana and had to cater to their superiors. “It was totally different from being in eighth grade; now we were high school students. It’s like we are tough, even though only freshmen,” commented Scott Schwartz, 9, about himself and his friends. The sophomores found that they were no longer the low men on the Indian totem pole. With their newly found status, they acted crazier than ever. They still knew, though, that they were not upperclassmen. Margot Govert, 10, stated, “We’re not freshmen anymore, but we are still not the top of the school. It’s like we are lost in the middle.’ And the newest batch of upperclassmen, the Class of ’89, discovered that they were quickly moving up that class ladder. As the wild bunch, they let their maturity escape them at the games and acted wilder than ever. “We’re moving up that class ladder. This year has been great, but I can’t wait for next year, said Anne Kozanda, 11. But who can forget the actions of the seniors? They have waited three, very long years to rule the school, and now it was their time. They were 1 in their eyes and want¬ ed everyone to know. This was their year to turn this school upside down, and that is what they did. Ed Welch, 12, said, “We are wild and crazy! Everyone better watch out because we are on a roll, and nothing s go¬ ing to stop us now.” by Jennifer Palko Ou ragp4fr8r 13 4 Foreign Language Christ¬ mas cards give us students a chance to really experience the holidays with an interna¬ tional flavor,} stated Mindy Sikora, 12. Foreign Language Cards To arouse more interest in foreign languages, students were challenged to create a Christmas card in their foreign language being taken. Creativity was a plus in getting a good grade; teachers were not looking for a stick Santa Claus. Ranging from all types and sizes, these cards decorat¬ ed the foreign language rooms through¬ out the holiday season. An Egg Baby Boom Hits 136 Students at LC In one week, a major baby boom hit LC. To each of the 136 new parents, a very fragile and precious new¬ born was given to their possession. Mr. Pollen’s soci¬ ology classes learned the different responsibilities that have to be taken when being a parent. “Having a baby changes your whole lifestyle. I never knew how careful one has to be when caring for something so fragile,” stated Tracey Drake, 12. Considering the amount of population, the survival rate was fairly successful. But to every rule, there is always an exception. Meredith Rastovski, 11, stated, “On my second day of parenthood, I was sitting in French class when my baby fell from her basket and onto the floor. Great depression filled the room and a small funeral was then held within the class. I definitely learned how much responsibility and supervision is needed to care for a baby.” All in all, everyone had a good time; especially, students outside the sociology class. Snatching babies and making parents pay ransoms were the highlights of the week. 4AII I kept thinking was that if I smashed my little egg, my girlfriend would kill me,} said Bil¬ ly Bednar, 12. Hours of Study Pay Off The coffee is strong, but it is just what LC students wanted during Finals Week. Many sacrifices were made starting with sleep and a so¬ cial life. The LC student went home, let out a sigh, and started cracking the books. One week of pure hyste¬ ria. The weekend before was not full of parties and dances, but of group study sessions. Monday rolled around, and it was back to LC teachers beginning reviews, and stu¬ dents dreaded what came next. Monday night and lights were on un¬ til wee hours of the morning. On Tuesday students looked as if they were on their last leg; the day dragged on. That night was the first real cram night; tomorrow finals in first and third hours. Wednesday the first relief came, only four finals were left. That night the studying became more difficult, not a decent nights sleep in four days; the words in the textbooks just blend together. When was it to end? On Thursday finals in second and fifth hours were taken. Now the last surge of studying took place. It was the last all-nighter for many stu¬ dents, but not to be one soon forgot¬ ten. On Friday students walk in as if death had swarmed over. Finals in fourth and sixth hours seemed to drag on, but only half a day. The bell rang after sixth hour, and students rushed to their cars. When arriving home, they crashed awhile. A few hours of sleep later, the LC party animals were ready for a happening weekend. 4Since this is my last semes¬ ter finals at LC; I am ex¬ erting myself one last week for high marks,} stat¬ ed Brent Par¬ is, 12. 4Finals are the hardest tests so, you have to study more,} said Brian Aspan, 1 1 . 14 Outrageous! Darkness Sweeps LC During Day The bell rings ending fifth hour, students rush to their sixth hour classes. All of a sudden, darkness sweeps over LC. Some students are in the halls, others are in classrooms. The school is in a state of mass confusion. Flashlights and lighters are the only sources of light in the darker parts of LC. “During the black out, I frantically searched for my lighter so I could see where I was going and what I was doing. After quite a while of having the class sitting in the light emitted from the lighters, they moved our class to the gym and told us to put away our lighters. We had a great time while it lasted, though,” said Marianne Swanson, 11. The minutes elapse and still no word about the power outage. Principals and teachers roam the halls; students in classrooms without windows are instructed to go to the fieldhouse. Their path is illuminated by floodlights. Once inside the fieldhouse, students complained that they felt caged in and claustrophobic. Doors were blocked by faculty members. Teasing among groups on the gym floor started under the dark cover, and chanting began. “The students began to revolt be¬ cause they felt as if they were caged in. It was like being a hostage that was under strict supervision. Most of us gathered by the doors hoping to catch a glimpse of the world beyond the fieldhouse; it was such an awful feeling of being locked in. I think I realize how terrible it would be to be imprisoned. I never want to feel this way again,” said Shelley Fear, 11. After twenty minutes of ‘captivity’ ”, the wild sa¬ vages are set free. There is a stampede by the doors. Students rush to get to their lockers and on their way home. The hour of darkness helped brighten the first day of the semester finals. HOMEWORK: A Drag! Homework: oh, how students dread the word. Six hours of school followed by usually two hours of studying certainly does not appeal to most students. Michael Gaura, 11, said, “Some¬ times it’s like the day is never going to end; it’s just work, work, and more work.” There are ways, though, that students have found to combat homework wars. Food and music seem to be the most popular aids in study¬ ing. In a more relaxed environment, students find that they can cope with homework a little easier, but most would rather not have to cope with it at all. 4At first I thought it was just someone playing with the lights, but then my teacher yelled ‘the power is out, ' and I sat under one of the tables, said Lisa Pasko, 10. 4Homework is necessary. However, teachers should take into consider¬ ation that stu- dents get homework in most classes ,) said Jeff Jus- tak, 11. Pop Quizzes Fair? A surprise quiz or a ‘pop’ quiz, as it was called, was one of the things a student feared most before entering a classroom everyday. Lisa Yokubaitis, 9, said, “I think they are unfair because I don’t know what to expect.” Mr Robert Rarick, a science teacher, thought surprise quizzes were OK as long as the material covered was understandable to the students. How¬ ever, Ms. Marcy Stemp, a math teacher, stated, I don’t like them because a student might have tests in three other subjects and did not get time to study for my class.” Gillie Jones, 9, summed up the matter by saying, “Pop quizzes don’t really matter if you have been paying attention in class. A teacher is not going to give you a pop quiz over something not covered in class.” Students Experience History Snowballs flew through the air at an innocent British man. Mr. Tom Clark’s Honors U.S. History class portrayed a scene on the Boston Massacre. One un¬ suspecting student was sent on an er¬ rand, while the rest of the class pre¬ pared for the attack. Upon his return, the situation was explained; the class then awaited their cue. Soon, crumbled pieces of paper were tossed at the student. Students got the chance to re-enact history. 41 don ' t like pop quizzes. I think we have the right to know when we are supposed to have a test in a class ,) De¬ anna Csomo, 11. J Outrageous! 15 An LC student’s life might feel as if it revolves entirely around classes and home¬ work; but even with the heavy workload, stu¬ dents always find time to bound out from the ordinary routine. Student life is the special moments, the ones that will be remembered most by students after graduation. Maybe it was just “hanging out” at Burger King or Stardust, but the time spent away from the academic scene was always cher¬ ished. Sporting events, field trips, vacations, parties, prom, and formal were all a part of this high school year. There was a life outside of LC’s walls, and never would life be like it was this year. It was an “outrageous!” year; new fash¬ ions, fads, and crazes swept over LC. The wild and crazy Indians were on the warpath for adventure and excitement, no matter how outrageous they had to act to find it. When the power went out during semester finals week, students got psyched-up for more ex¬ citement. The real life of LC students is uncovered by focusing on life outside of the school day. Academics are stressed during the day, but after-school students need tension breakers. School really expands beyond the classroom with the happenings that the students par¬ take in. A student’s life is a life that should be focused on. by Jennifer Palko When the third quarter ended, the anticipation of the beginning of the candy toss began. EnthusiasticaJly, LC students jumped and screamed to rake in a large haul of goodies. 16 Outrageous! “Outrageousness!” was expressed this year In many unique ways. At the first dance sponsored by Pep Club, a group of radical seniors donned sheets, sunglasses, and headbands to show their “outTageousness! Three mem bers of this toga party, Brian Nutini, Mark Pekez. and Chris Moncado, have a contest to see who has the better¬ looking legs Through all the laughing, a winner was never declared.

LCTG newcomer Dan Lackey sings about life as a Negro in the sixties. SHINE! The Lake Central Theatre Guild (LCTG) presented its Summer Season 16 with two very different plays—the hippie musical, Hair , and the British comedy, Noises Off. All the hard work and dedication put in by casts, crews, directors Paul and Angie Lowe and orchestra paid off with rave reviews from critics and audience members alike. Tracy Barsic, 11, remarked, “Hair and Noises Off were two of the funniest, most energetic shows I have ever saw.” Hair took audiences back in time to the late sixties, when flower-power ruled, and the Age of Aquarius came around. It was the story of The Tribe, a band of hippies that expressed their feelings and beliefs through music and conflicts with The Establishment. The Tribe meets up with young Claude Hooper Bukowski, played by LC graduate Ron Buche, who was just drafted by the Army. Claude stayed with them until he re¬ ported to Uncle Sam. During that time, Claude befriended Tribe leader George Berger, Pete Balciunas, and fell in love with college radical Sheila Franklin, Chris Gustis. Hair also featured the acting and singing de¬ but of science teacher Linda Casebolt, who played Berger’s mother and anthropologist Margaret Meade. In the end, Claude died in Vietnam, and The Tribe mourned him in song. Noises Off was completely different from Hair. Set in England, it involved a troupe of actors preparing a play called “Nothing On.” Between missed cues, flubbed lines and try¬ ing to find drunkard Selsdon Mowbary, played by “Doc” Kuhn, they managed to pull the show together and get it on the road. But in Act II, personal problems, jealousies and Murphy’s Law took effect backstage as the show started to fall apart while on tour. In Act III disaster struck. Absolutely everything went wrong, and the entire cast hated each other. The cast managed to survive their last performance, but had to scream at the stage manager Tim Allgood, Mark Weaver, 12, to turn the lights off at the end while on stage. Angie Lowe was very proud of both pro¬ ductions, especially Noises Off. Said Lowe, ”1 think it was by far the best straight show we ever did. The show was incredible!” By Karen Talarek In Noises Off mayhem and confusion between the actors nearly caused the destruction of their play. Pete Bal¬ ciunas and Valerie Wilson wonder what could possibly happen next. The cast was constantly yelling at each other in frustra¬ tion.

Students pleaded for lunch hours to forget scholastic pressures. Rob Noe, 12, and Tony Candiano, 12, engage in a messy watermelon fight. Of the 22 watermelons sliced, very few were actually eaten. AND ACTIVITIES With the first few days of class came the busy atmosphere of students organizing back-to-school activities. Many students found themselves back to the agony of taking notes, hurrying through homework, and sweating through tests. Warm weather was a definite plus. Stu¬ dents tried to catch the last glimpse of sum¬ mer before their dreaded class captivity. Afternoon water fights, fundraising car wash¬ es, and weekend watermelon parties all re¬ lieved the pressure of school. “The cheer¬ leaders all got together one time and cut up 22 watermelons,” said Shelley Fear, 11. “Then we laid them out on newspapers and had fun as the football players and us de¬ voured them all.” The classic back-to-the-books dance was held after the first football game. Some par- tied in toga outfits. Others were more relaxed and just tried to forget school. 20 Back-to-school R. Vavan “If only lunch hour (well 35 minutes, any¬ how) would get here!” was a repeating thought in the minds of most students. Lunch was a time for friends to get re-acquainted and take a short break from studies. Ariadna Fernandez, 9, said, “Lunch is okay. I’m usu¬ ally with a medium-sized crowd, and if we have time we stand around and talk in the foyer.” In the second week of school, everyone began to worry about a different problem- snakes! Baby snakes were found in study hall, lower E-hall, and in back of the theater. Some people even ventured to capture the little villains and smuggle them on the bus. Jim Becklenberg, 10, said, “I just saw a snake that was about 10 inches long. It was lying behind some equipment. I don’t know how it got there.” As Indian summer faded, students began to concentrate more on class. Clubs and cabi¬ nets re-organized with one general thought in mind —Homecoming. Spray-painting and gluing, cabinets made sure their float would be the best. Homecoming festivities came through with a blast. By Lisa Pasko With the beginning of school came the beginning of build¬ ing Homecoming floats.

The excitement around the game was ever-present in the halls throughout the week prior to the game on Friday, Oct. 2. The Student Government Association (SGA) was in charge of the Homecoming festivities and school spirit played a big part in making it memorable. The first of several boosters was Spirit Week. It started out with dress-up day and continued throughout the week with oth¬ ers; such as clash day, blue and white day, and college shirt day. Other spirit boosters were a float decorating contest, a yell con¬ test, and last but not least, a fence decorating contest. In all the competitions, the freshmen came up the winners and second place went to the seniors; while the juniors and sopho¬ mores took the third and fourth place awards, respectively. But the true battle was out on the field between two football teams. As the icy winds blew across the Burial Grounds, the Indians remained hot. The Homecoming festivities were put aside, and the Indians knew they had a tough game ahead of them, tougher than they thought. As Paul D’Angelo, 12, commented, “We wer¬ en’t expecting Griffith to give us such a chal¬ lenge.” As halftime approached, the anticipation of crowning the king and queen elevated. As the highlight of the Homecoming celebration, the crowning of the royal couple, came closer Th« Homecoming parade proceeded through the streets of Dyer for over an hour The LC Marching Band, led by drum major Jan Gardner, 12, shows its spirit. 22 Homecoming the candidates of the Homecoming court be¬ came excited. The candidates were Jason Gerlach, Bob Rauh, Greg Passeretti, and Bri¬ an Breclaw for senior king; Kari Ashby, Lisa Massa, Missy Lowe, and Marcey Pullo for senior queen. The other princes and prin¬ cesses also became excited. The junior royal couple were Fred Willman and Jolie Lamott. Mike Butler and Jennifer Hollingsworth were the sophomore prince and princess; while Chris Falaschetti and Sonya Peters were the freshmen royal couple. The climax for the Homecoming court came when Jason Ger¬ lach and Kari Ashby were crowned the king and queen. The royal couple’s time in the spotlight lasted but a few moments, as it was time for the Indians and Panthers to continue the game. During halftime, as the crowning of the king and queen took place, Coach Britton lit a spark under his Indian team, and they en¬ tered the third quarter with a new fire in their eyes. Though the winds continued, the Indi¬ ans were not about to be cooled off. They continued their rampage. Even after quarterback Mark Evans, 12, was injured in the fourth quarter; reserve quarterback Wayne Collins, 11, filled in and connected with Kevin Nolbertowicz, 12, with a 17-yard touchdown pass. It looked as if nothing would stop the Indians then. The offense was tough, but the defense did their job of blocking the Panthers. Doug Schil¬ ling, 11, said, “Coach Britton worked on stopping the run, and that’s what we did.” This strategy proved to be to the Indians’ advantage and resulted in a win. As the final seconds ticked away, the Indi¬ ans found themselves victorious. With a final score of 32-30, not even the wintry winds could chill this Homecoming game. by Jennifer Palko and Kelly Kleinaman ft School spirit urged the Indian football team on to victory.

Elaine McDermott, 11, said, “Our coaches taught us a lot. We worked really hard, and to add to our fun the seniors sometimes helped—like one Saturday they came over to our practice field and threw just about everyone in the mud. Then we got them back and pulled them in with us.” Tiring from the continuous strategy of run¬ ning on the outside mostly to the left, the juniors suffered a defeat of 18-6. The seniors D Lacombc showed the strong offense, especially Kristin Scott, who repeatedly broke through the ju¬ niors’ defense. Ed welch, a coach for the sen¬ iors, said, “The girls were very intelligent and learned the plays quickly. Our strategy was to score first and let the defense take over from there. The offense was penalized a lot but still dominated.’’ In addition to Scott, Kari Ashby, Sandy Clark, and Marcey Pullo were also valuable in leading the seniors to victory. “As captain of the offense, I think we did pretty well, though,’’ said McDermott. “Our best play was the 36-fake reverse which we, at least, scored our only touchdown with. De¬ spite a few injuries, the game was really good and mature because most of us were friends.” by Lisa Pasko As in football, the powder puff girls dramatically enter the field by running through a hoop.

Field trips, days where on-the-job learning experiences were to be taken seriously, end¬ ed up actually being fun days where the only serious topic was “Where are we going to eat lunch?” Many classes visited universities to broad¬ en their education on library and research skills. Sophomore and freshman merit Eng¬ lish classes spent a day in freezing Chicago touring Cicago University and its multi-level library.

Besides the lessons in French, the play has many lessons of life.” Band spent a four-day weekend at More- head State University.

Due to a burned circuit at a St. John sub-station, students and teachers alike were left in total confusion as they bravely fought their way down the dark hallways. Mark Spejewski, 11, said, “Everyone went crazy. I found my way out into V-hall trying to LIGHTS EVERYONE! go to my locker in upper E-hall. Then my teacher saw me and made me sit in our dark classroom.” Teachers immediately scrambled around looking for candles or kerosene lamps, as students whipped out their lighters. Those teachers whose classrooms had no windows sent their students down to either the gym or the C-hall foyer. Everyone was piled in “Where’s my class?” was a famous quote as students, although in the dark, still managed to find friends and lockers. groups trying to maintain some light as they repeatedly worked their locker combina¬ tions, in hopes of getting it open before the next day. Some teachers walked up and down the hallways helping people with their lockers or just plain finding their way in the dark. Pat Velligan, 11, said, “I just kept on doing what I always do, when the lights went out. I just walked the halls, hoping I didn’t walk into anybody.” Since most of the school was in uncontrollable confusion and with the lights, the heat was also off; it was not too soon before students were allowed to leave early. Most of St. John was also in confusion. Local businesses had no electricity, and the street lights were out, too. The black out marked a memorable day, that when recall¬ ing the school year, it would probably not be far from most people’s minds. by Lisa Pasko The students whose classrooms had no windows were sent either to the gym or the C-hall foyer.

Plummeting to tempera¬ tures below zero, the weather made many students run from cars and buses to the still very cold classrooms. Everyone did most ev¬ erything to keep from enduring the outside cold. Those who could bear the cold took ad¬ vantage of the freezing temperatures by playing hockey or iceskating. “Iceskating is fun because you feel like you are just floating across the ice,” said Julie Yancich, 10. With the sudden snow came the pleasure of snowmobiling, cross-country skiing, sled¬ ding, slahom skiing, and building snowmen. Winter weekends away to snow lodges and cabins was looked to by many students. “I’ve been cross-country skiing since I was five,” said Michele Bland, 10. “I go on trips on weekends and we ski all day.” Ice and snow made many first-time drivers nervous. Waking up in the morning only to find your car stalled or having to drive under 20 mph only to get stuck in a sharp turn were a few problems almost everyone dreaded.

FORMAL HEARTS Winter Formal ’88 was held on the chilling night of Jan. 23. But neither the snow nor dropping temperatures kept people from en¬ joying themselves. The theme, “In My Dreams”, lingered in couples’ minds and hearts as they engaged in the music, refresh¬ ments and intimacy of the night. Upon entering the Greek Orthodox Hall, couples were assigned a picture session with Aquino Photos so that most of the night would not be spent waiting in line for pic¬ tures. Formal had a tremendous turnout; nearly 600 people danced amid the hall decorations of burgundy, brass and dusty rose. The tickets, which went on sale earlier in the month, had sold out in two days. Swaying softly to classics by Pink Floyd or Led Zepplin or dancing energetically to the golden oldies of the sixties, couples enthusias¬ tically crowded onto the dance floor and danced around the clock. Garters were also traditionally removed—some respectfully used their hands while others tore them off with their teeth. Coronation began around 9 p m. and named Wendee Ross, 11, as queen. Escort¬ ing her was Brian Taylor, 12. Other members of the court included Karen Kotvasz, 12; Lin¬ da Reitman, 10; and Robin Dan, 9. “I thought each candidate had an equal opportunity to win,” said Ross. “I was really excited and surprised.” When the music stopped and the roar of laughter and partying dwindled down to a gentle murmur, couples carefully endured the unexpected snow and slush to leave for dinner. Raleigh’s, Courtney’s, and Alex¬ ander’s were a few of the favorite restau¬ rants. Others still managed to drive up to Chicago for a night on the town and a roman¬ tic carriage ride. Kim Buske, 12, said, “My date, James Jayjack, got us a limo and after the dance we went to Chicago for dinner at Arnie’s.

Winter Formal 33 OUT FOR THE RECORD “Bounce the Brickies” was a general thought for LC fans as they watched the Indi¬ ans defeat Hobart with an outstanding score of 115-76. This score set a new school record for most points scored by beating the former record of 107. Steve Kozma, 12, made 27 points and nine assists while Angelo Mantis, 12, put in 28. The Indians pushed ahead in the first quarter and grabbed the lead for the rest of the game. The JV team also maintained the sense of victory in the air as they captured a win by 29 34 Homecoming points. Homecoming was celebrated by clubs and class cabinets as they traditionally decorated the gym walls with messages like “LC breaks all records” or “Watch Taylor mend the Brickies.” “We worked for a week after school,” said Juliette Kuc, 10, a Sophomore Class Cabinet member. “Our theme was Sesame Street, and we took second place.” During halftime the Centralettes did a rou¬ tine to Salt and Peppa’s song “Push It” as the Homecoming nominees waited patiently for their names to be announced. Accepting the honor as king and queen were Brian Breck- law, 12, and Kari Ashby, 12. Ashby said, “I was really surprised, and I wasn’t expecting us to win.

M.I.A. flag to honor the men still missing in action in Vietnam. A Gold Star Honor Roll book was being done by the classes to commemorate the men from Lake County who gave their lives in Vietnam. Kathy Csoka, 11, who did many hours of work on the project, also was presented with an honorary award from the Vietnam Associ¬ ation.

Jp M • OUT TO YOU Do you remember back in the days of first or second grade when pinning a sign on a person s back or telling someone that he had a spot on his shirt received many hysterical laughs? Those were the memorable days of practical jokes. Practical jokes were a funny part to most everyone’s life. Planting fake vomit in some¬ one’s book or trying to reenact scenes from “Friday the 13th” still brought out the youth¬ ful immaturity and humor in students. ‘‘For my birthday I had been kidding around about wanting a car,” sa id Julie Yancich, 10. “As a joke, my friends gave me a matchbox car.” Parents occasionally involved themselves in practical jokes. Tim Jongsma, 9, said. My mom woke me up on a Saturday morning and told me I had to go to school, so I got up and got ready to go before she ever told me the truth!” Once the victim, revenge came quickly to mind. “At a camp I was at during the sum¬ mer, I tee-peed my friend’s bed on her birth¬ day while she was asleep,” said Yancich. “When she woke up, she couldn’t get out of bed.” J . Sometimes accidents appeared to be prac¬ tical jokes. Stephanie Smith, 10, said, “One time some of my friends were sitting in a van to keep warm. We thought the van s c.b. was off, and we started playing around with it. We reported four d ead girls. Someone on the same frequency came on saying they’d send an ambulance. Luckily, we fixed everything before any drastic measures were taken.” Freshmen sometimes feared the “that’s- not-very-funny practical joke called initi¬ ation. Although initiation was uncommon in general, newcomers to many sports feared the worst. Sitting in puddles, being thrown into lakes, or having buckets of water dumped on you were all innocently amusing ways of welcoming a new member to a team. Most practical jokes died off when maturi¬ ty entered, but for some they were still a way to let off a little steam. by Lisa Pasko Jokes 39 THEATRICAL BY THE LCTG “Don’t Drink the Water!” was the key phrase heard from members of the Lake Central Theatre Guild (LCTG) as they pre¬ pared the opening of this Woody Allen com¬ edy. Directed by Mr. and Mrs. Paul and An¬ gie Lowe, the cast cavorted on a double- decker set which portrayed the United States Embassy behind the Iron Curtain. Jeff Graf¬ ton, 12, played the part of Father Drobney, an eccentric priest who aspired to be a magi¬ cian. He also narrated the scenes and kept the action of the play moving. Grafton stated, “I liked this part best because it allowed me to use my face a lot —that’s my favorite part of performing.” Ray Seely, 10, portrayed Ambassador Magee; his son Axel Magee was acted out by Brian DeValk, 10. Axel Magee’s career had recently been a series of disasters; however, his father left him in charge of the Embassy during his absence to run for governor. The Ambassador would rather leave his responsi¬ ble assistant Kilroy, played by Louis Scott, 12, in charge; but he felt it would look bad for the family image. Meanwhile, tourists Walter Hollandar, protrayed by Mark Weaver, 12; his wife, Marion, acted by Janet Mikulski, 12; and their daughter, Susan, played by Karen Mas- tey, 12, are arrested by the secret police because they are thought to be spies. Cemal Ozdemir, 10, played Krojack, the menacing head of the secret police who wore an over¬ coat and carried an automatic. Doug Hensen, 11, who appeared on stage for the first time as the arratic chef Henri, commented, “It’s fun to be in the play be¬ cause you can be someone you aren’t—and the Lowes let you take the part where you want it to go.” Missy Buche, 12, who played Miss Burns, stated, “The other people in the show are really fun to work with; it’s always neat to work with people who know what they are doing.” Clowns, trapeze artists, and jugglers were featured in the LCTG spring musical “Carni¬ val,” It took place in France and was consid¬ ered by directors Paul and Angie Lowe as a “delicate” show.

However, the incomparable Rosalie, played by Janet Mikulski, 12, became jealous because of Mar¬ co’s attentions toward Lilli. She threatened to marry Dr. Glas, portrayed by Mark Weaver, 12 . After Lilli ruined the Carnival magic show, Jim Becklenberg, 10, as B.F. Schlagel, the owner, fired her. But after he saw her talent with the puppet act, he re-hired her to work with Paul and his assistant Jacquot, played by Jamie Kirkpatrick, 9. Paul soon discovered that he was falling in love with Lilli, and she did not realize that he was trying to tell her through the only way he knew: his puppets. Yvette Venable, 10, as Carrot Top; Grafton as Horrible Henry; De¬ anna Csomo, 11, as Marguerite; Grafton as Renardo (with Dan Arndt as the dancing Ren- ardo); and Glen Boske, 10, as Dr. Duclos were Paul’s transportation to Lilli’s heart.

At approximately 6 p.m., just under 100 students were locked into the empty halls of LC in a fight against drugs and alco¬ hol. As you entered the door and noticed the “not-to-be-used” sign on the phone, you were handed a name tag to be worn at all times. You were also assigned to a group where all issues involved in the lock-in were discussed openly and confidentially. Before two speeches, one on how to deal with stress and one on the abuse of alcohol and marijuana, students found themselves trusting total strangers by trust walks or just candidly explaining problems. After the dis¬ cussions, students were left to do as they please, whether it be dancing, inhaling pizza or chicken, or playing volleyball and basket¬ ball. “It was a wonderful experience, emu i mfc a lot of new people,” said Kathy Csoka, 11. “I enjoyed staying overnight.” At the late hour of 1:30 the dancing stopped, and students hailed out their paja¬ mas and sleeping bags to try to squeeze in at least three hours of sleep. As sunlight cracked through the classroom windows, ev¬ eryone, still wrapped in sleeping bags and blankets, rushed downstairs to devour dough¬ nuts and milk. In the morning, a movie on inherited drug abuse was shown, and a last chance to discuss topics was shared by the groups. Mr. Clark, one of the organizers of the lock-in, said, “1 think this was a successful approach to drug education, and we’re hop¬ ing it will snowball.” by Lisa Pasko Into the late hours of the night, students enjoyed dancing and liistening to music by the Music Men.

The jackets came in sev«r al colors, the most popular being black, white and pink. 44 Fashions OH, THOSE Every day, students were faced with the same burning question: “What should I wear?” The latest fads and fashions solved that problem by offering an assorted array of styles that pleased even the most radical of tastes. The biggest fashion craze was in the fall, with the surge of acid-washed denim. Denim invaded every aspect of fashion faire, even coming in an assortment of colors such as red, peach and black. Denim purses, dres¬ ses, shirts, shoes, boots, and even partially denim formal dresses were manufactured and bought in hoards by fashion hungry stu¬ dents. But by far, the denim jacket proved to be King of the Blues, outselling any of those items. Jean jackets came in all kinds of fancy styles and lengths, some even almost touch¬ ing the floor. Others appeared with leopard- skin design shoulders and fringe, while some had favorite heavy metal rock group insigni¬ as artistically drawn on the back. Patti Bies- en, 11, commented, “I like denim, but there is a time and a place to wear it. But I like put¬ ting lots of pins on my jacket!” Other popular jacket styles included the classic tweed, brown leather bomber jackets and leather waistcoats with long strands of fringe. Half-boots, oversized sweaters and baggy pants were left-over “ins” from previous years that still remained staples in the fash¬ ion industry. Newer trends included scarves draped around the neck, Liz Claiborne pur¬ ses, mini-skirts, colorful tie-dyes, bows and banana clips. Hair became longer, but it was not left straight and flat but put up with either bows and banana clips, or left down and curled by perms. Guys ' hair also grew with the trend, but it was usually left long in back and cropped close on the sides. Ear¬ rings for guys also became more common with the “punk” look. by Karen Talarek R V v n Although hair became longer, it was often put up in bows or banana clips.

School and family pressures were re¬ leased at local arcades or bowling alleys. Shooting a game of pool or beating the power out of a video game were just a few ways to let off any extra energy. Shopping malls and movie theaters were frequently visited by many students. Feeling your back go numb while you ansily sit through a two-hour movie or suffering from the spreading addiction of “shopaholism” were also ways to spend time with your friends and to forget any school problems. “I like to go to pizza parlors and to the lakes in Michigan with my friends almost ev¬ ery weekend said Lori Baucom, 10. “We also hike at the dunes and do water sports.” Omni jams and young adult dance clubs gave everyone a chance to see each other out of school. They gave students a chance to get out and have a good time. “Omni jams are fun because you stay out late and dance with your friends all night,” said Kellean Barron, 10. Hanging out at lunch hours also gave stu¬ dents a break from school work. Enjoying warmer temperatures while staying outside or just hanging around the foyer or cafeteria to talk with friends had students forgeting their classes for a half hour. After-school sports and activities also cap¬ tured the free time of many students. They found themselves cooling off after a hard run by an open hydrant or maybe even kicking a soccer ball until the late hours of dusk ar¬ rived. Whatever you did and wherever you went, hangouts were looked forward to by all. by Lisa Pasko Juniors Jeff Sprycha, Bob Wleklinski, and Dave Grabske inhale a large pizza while spending time with friends at a party K Sikora Seniors Mitch Conley.

Prom was held on the traditional Friday night at St. Michael’s Serbian Social Center in Lansing, Illinois. The evening proved to be a magical and memorable one. With weather in the mid-60’s and the sun shining bright, students arrived in swarms of limos and fancy cars. Bright shimmery dress¬ es rustled as couples checked in and found tables to reserve. Most couples waited in line to have their picture taken by Spassoff Stu¬ dios. Once students were seated, dinner was served with dishes such as beef, chicken, mashed potatoes, and mostaccioli. After din¬ ner, the dancing started with music by the Southside Connection. “I thought they were a good band because they played the music like it is on the radio,” commented Deanna Csomo, 11. “But they took a few too many breaks!” Then it was time to reveal the Prom King and Queen. The court included juniors Jean Duggan, Nina Tica, Erica Sudac, Michelle Vozar, and Tricia Gluth. Seniors included K Stkora It was always traditional for guys to wear the girls’ gar ters, but for girls to wear the guys’ bowties? Scott Finnegan, 11, and Govanna Lucido play their part in the growing trend while taking a break from dancing. 48 Prom Marci Jamrose. Peggy Korellis, Nancy Northam, Lisa Massa, and Stacy Tsozsos. Jean Duggan was announced as Prom prin¬ cess; Peggy Korellis and Jordan Taylor, her escort, were announced as the royal couple. Not long after the announcement, the garters were removed by anxious escorts. Some were gently removed by hands while others were removed by teeth. The dance ended at midnight, but to all the Prom-goers the night was still young. Most couples climbed into their limos and headed- off to Chicago for a romantic dinner or carri¬ age ride. But Rhonda Strelec, 11, and date Cemal Ozdemir, 10, had a crazier idea-they took off for the nearest bowling alley. Strelec laughed about the experience. “At first I didn’t want to go. But once I got there, it was so much fun. and I got four strikes in my dress!” But, the fun was not over yet. The day after prom was considered by many to be the best part of the whole week-end. The two most popular hang-outs were Turkey Run State Park and opening day at Six Flags Great America. Seniors Heather Garton and Kelly Kleinaman loved their outing to Great America. “It gave us the chance to act like little kids: we were no longer 18 years old. We were little 10-year-olds running all over the park!” they exclaimed. “Feelings of Forever” was more than mere words to Garton and Kleinaman. “Prom was the most memorable experience of our senior year,” they commented. “It was a time in which we shared memories with our friends that we’ll remember for years to come.” by Karen Talarek After being chosen Prom King and Queen, seniors Jor¬ dan Taylor and Peggy Korellis pose in all their royalty.

It was the last chance the graduating class had to be togeth¬ er and commend those who have shown out¬ standing qualities such as Most Likely to Suc¬ ceed and Most Likely to be Famous. It was also a chance to joke along with those who received awards such as Biggest Brownnose and Worst Driver. A DJ was provided for the enjoyment of the seniors by Musicmen. Some recipients of senior awards made a small speech when receiving them. Ed Welch, who was voted Most Likely to Flunk Out of College stated, “The joke’s on you. I didn’t get accepted into college.’’ Others were embarrassed about receiving their awards. When Jason Gerlach, also known to many as Styme, received his award for Best Looking, a few friends held up a banner which said, ‘STYME YOU’RE THE CUTEST’. Gerlach stated, “I felt like killing them because I was so embarrassed. I really wasn’t expecting to win, but I’m happy I got the award.” Still others who received their awards felt honored. Louis Scott along with Jeff Bennett were awarded Most Likely to Succeed. Ben¬ nett stated. “It’s nice to be respected by your peers. I was surprised because I didn’t know a lot of people who voted for me. It’s good to be recognized by those who don’t know me very well. ' Even those who didn’t receive awards seemed to be enjoying themselves. Whether talking with friends or dancing it up, the soon to be graduates had fun at one of their last High School activities.

Once again everyone flashed bathing suits and “copped some rays.” Senioritis was in the air as the days of school came to a close. Students started to spend weekends in Chicago and Great America. Enjoying the warm weather was a definite need. “We (the English class) spent a day in Chi¬ cago and saw ‘Shear Madness’. It was well worth the money and very entertaining,” said Melissa Lamfalusi, 10. An annual spring event was the blood drive. Brave 18-year-olds faced questionna¬ ires and cookies before and after having some blood pumped from their veins.

Before sports events and other com¬ petitions, LC students and teams would show their spirit; opponents soon discovered that they should watch out. Whether a competition was for athletics or for academics, LC students strove for suc¬ cess. Extracurricular activities such as clubs and sports prepared students for future ca¬ reers and leadership positions and strength¬ ened their abilities. Teachers, coaches, and sponsors provided the needed assistance to students preparing for competitions or for careers.

After 11 years of tests and report cards, we finally arrived, and before we even got started the rug was pulled out from underneath us. As we walked through the door at the beginning of the year, it was announced that we would no longer have the week early release, com¬ monly known as “Senior Week.” Robert Campbell ,12, stated, “I think that it is unfair for us to have a privilege taken away from us after so many other seniors were allowed to have it. It was always something that we could look forward to before the actual gra¬ duation ceremony. Besides, what more could we possibly learn in one week’s time?” Heather Garton ,12, said, “I don’t see why the Class of ’88 is any different from other senior classes in the past. We have worked hard throughout our school years, and the last week of school off would be a reward. I don’t think a week off of school would cause any harm, and when that last week comes a lot of seniors will cause trouble.” Paul Banter ,12, said, “I feel it’s an unnec¬ essary change that the people of Congress put into action because they were book¬ worms. There’s nothing wrong with a good education, but it’s not going to increase our knowledge in one week of school, especially when all we do the last week of school is sit around and talk.” Cindy Smack ,12, stated, “I don’t think that this is fair. I feel we should have this one week off just like all the other seniors in the past. This Senior Week would have been an advantage to all seniors so they can get ready for graduation parties, graduation day, and anything they will be getting ready for.” Melisa Watson ,12, stated, “I feel that we should still have it. Seniors have a lot of things to do that last week, let alone studying for finals. It’s stupid to all of a sudden stop some thing that did no harm.” by Kelly Kleinaman Deborah Adams- FEA 1; OEA 4; N-Teens 1; Pep 1,2,3, 4. sec y; Lettergirls 2. 3. 4. captain.

Looking forward to graduation Amy Puahckor Making future plans Most seniors looked forward to their gradu¬ ation. It’s a special celebration where parties and other events were planned. It’s a time when most seniors turned 18 and had accom¬ plished at least 12 years of school. Many went on to college or started working. Like most seniors, Rob Peterson planned to go on vacation. “Brett Wright and I are going to travel to some distant land, like Florida,’’ said Rob. Others planned on working and continuing their education. “I plan on getting a part-time job and then go on to college,” said Laura Farrant. Many were relieved of the stress of school, and that homework was over. Some said they just planned on “hanging out” for a year after graduation. They wanted to get used to the “good life” before they started another four years of school and went career bound. Some graduates planned on working on a special hobby or interest of theirs. Paul Hen¬ dricks took an interest in music and belonged to a band. “Some of the guys in my band and I are hoping to rent a house for band prac¬ tice,” said Hendricks. Whatever graduates had planned after high school, every goal to be accomplished was different. Some wanted to continue school, but about everyone could agree he was glad to have high school behind him and looked forward to a challenging future. By Jennifer Moe and Amy Kish Many seniors like to take a break Sam Longoria relieves his stress by hanging from the Eagle’s Nest at a local park. 58 Br-De Robert Campbell Tony Candiano — Letterwinners 2,3,4; Wrestling 3; Football 1,2,3,4 Milena Cappello— French 1,2; Class Cabinet 1,2,3,4; N- Teens 2,3; Pep 1,2; Soccer 3.4; Powder Puff 3,4; Jr. Treble 1; Varsity Choir 2; Foreign Exchange Club 4 James Carbon — German 1; Letterwinners 1,2,4; Swim¬ ming 1,2,4.

Br—De 59 Exchange students Learn customs and culture Meeting new people and experiencing a new culture was what foreign exchange stu¬ dent Anita Naidoo hoped to achieve while spending a year in the United States. Coming from South Africa, her hopes were high and her English was fluent. She graduated from high school in her own country, but attended LC to receive an American high school diplo¬ ma in hopes of further schooling at Purdue University. According to Naidoo, the schooling in South Africa is very different than in Amer¬ ica. “We wear uniforms and the girls are not allowed to wear make-up. We are very disci¬ plined and straight A students.” Naidoo also served as a young ambassador to promote foreign relations between South Africa and the United States. She felt her time spend at LC was a very rewarding ex¬ perience. Naidoo stated, “So far my study in America has been great. I’ve made a lot of friends and they’ve been wonderful to me. I know this will be an enlightening year, and one I’ll never forget.” By Christy Burgess Anita Naidoo stands holding the flag of her country. She spent a year in the United States learning about our culture. Anthony Deter —Football 1; Hockey 1,2. Steve DeYoung John Dickelman —Letterwinners 3; Wrestling 2, 3, 4; Wrestling Club 2,3.

I took interest in the program and wanted to learn more about it. My interest was based mainly on imagining myself living in a different country and learning about the different culture, where I knew no one,” Schredl said. The school rules between both countries were different. Tardiness was not enforced as harshly in Germany: for example, if a stu¬ dent was to walk in class 10 minutes late because he could not find a place for his bike (most of them ride bikes, because they live close to school), the teachers didn’t say a word.” “So far I am enjoying my stay very much. After all I wanted to come to America, so I could enjoy meeting new people, seeing dif¬ ferent things and learning a different culture. 1 am finding that the people at LC are very helpful. In some respects, I am an American fan; being an exchange student gives me the chance to see things that I’ve only seen on television or read about in the newspaper,’’ concluded Schredl. by Kelly Kleinaman Amy Puahckor Verena Schredl came from Germany to LC to learn about the United State . Traveling to the United States gave Verena the opportunity to learn of the difference between the countries.

After one long week of going to school and completing homework, most students count¬ ed the seconds for the final bell to ring on Friday afternoon. It was the moment we’d all awaited for—the weekend. But what did LC students do with all of their free time on weekends? Surveys showed most people preferred to go out with friends or on a date. Senior Lisa Bulla stated, “On my free time I usually spend time with my friends. We all just go over to one friend’s house to bum around or a big group of us will go to the movies or miniature golfing.” Another popular activity was going to par¬ ties Ed Welch (12) said, “It wouldn’t be much without the parties on the weekends. That’s the only way to get through school.’’ Working also was a popular but unfavor¬ able activity for students. Working took a large amount of a student’s free time. “Work¬ ing on your free time was a good way to earn money. But when you work too much you don’t have much time to spend with your friends which can be pretty boring.” stated Christy Burgess (12). Getting out and being with friends is what most students looked forward to. Several friends gathered together to celebrate a four-day weekend.

For many, being a sen¬ ior was the most important time of their life. Jay Grisafi stated, “Being a senior was cool. I felt as if the burden of school was being mi¬ raculously lifted off my shoulders. I mean life had a whole new outlook. I loved it! Jane Ilgin said, “1987 was my senior year. In ’88 I was a graduate, and it felt great. I waited a long time for it, and I know I was not the only one who felt that way. It felt like it was my year, and 1 went all out to make it the best. Being a senior meant that I had gotten through four years of monotony, and I was about to get out into the real world, and final¬ ly understand the way it worked. As 1 gradu¬ ated, 1 was hoping that the friends I made in my four years at LC would never forget me, because I wouldn’t forget them. Shannon Woodworth stated, “To me being a senior meant finally being taken seriously. I was also responsible for my own problems, and had to take care of them myself. When I was youn¬ ger, if I made a mistake someone would al¬ ways correct it; and if I had a problem some¬ one would always take care of it for me, even if I didn’t want them to.

To help make their decision, students sent for information, vis¬ ited campuses, attended college nights, and met with representatives of colleges. “I’ve been to Purdue University. I thought it was nice and a lot bigger than LC. The campus was very easy to find your way around and was very nicely landscaped,” said Gerald Gottschlich. Mindy Sikora said, ‘i have been to see eight colleges. The three I liked the best were Washington University, Drake University, and University of Dayton.” “I’ve visited Purdue Calumet. I thought it was really nice. The people were really great because they answered all the questions I asked,” said Steve Shea. Some seniors started to look for their col¬ lege choice at the beginning of their senior year while others started a couple of years ago. Milena Cappello said, “I just started look¬ ing at the beginning of the school year. I plan to attend Purdue University.” “I started looking in October of my senior - year. I want to attend Western Michigan State, because they have a really good Graphics Department. I plan on becoming a printer.” Mindy Sikora said, ‘‘1 began going to col¬ lege nights during my sophomore year, and I began visiting colleges during my junior year.” Rada Vavan said, ”1 plan to attend Pur¬ due University, because it’s not too far from home and they have my major. I also like the campus, and I’m familiar with it.” Making the choice of the right college can be a difficult yet exciting experience. By Amy Kish and Jennifer Moe Senior Mindy Sikora visited eight colleges before she could make a final decision. 66 Ma-Mo Robert Martinson Eric Masmck —Class Cabinet 3,4, Baseball 1,2,4.

Charlie had lost his life December 16, 1987, due to a car accident. Charlie was a letterman on the LC swim team and also participated in freshman foot¬ ball. When Charlie wasn’t at swim practice, he would usually be found with a group of his friends. “He never seemed to have a worry in the world,’’ commented Tom Aldrich, “He was my best friend, and I’ll miss him a lot.’’ “School just seems different without him,’’ said Stacy Peters. “I sometimes catch myself looking for him in the hallways, forget¬ ting that he’s gone.” Although Charlie is gone, the friends he had will always remember him and he will always be missed. 68 Mo-Pe a Linden Heller Feb. 22, 1969—June 21, 1987 The tradition of summer fun was broken for the friends of Linden Heller when they heard he had passed away. Linden’s death occurred June 21, 1987, due to a car acci¬ dent. Linden will be missed by his family and friends. Linden’s death was a shock to everyone that knew him and especially to his b est friend, Scott Dambeck. “There are just too many memories to even sum it up in a library of books,” said Scott. “Linden was a really great guy and I’ll never forget him,” said Cindy Smack. Al¬ though Linden is gone, he will never be for¬ gotten. NOT TO BE FORGOTTEN: LINDEN HELLER, February 22, 1969 to June 21, 1987, Kirk Ogrodowski — Football 1,2; Swimming 2.

Jennifer Sanger Being a senior in a student’s life always seems to be the best year in high school learn¬ ing. One factor that adds more excitement to the scene is the ideal of seniors being able to release or even graduate earlier than the oth¬ ers. As second semester began, a lot of stu¬ dents took advantage of this senior privilege. There were many reasons why seniors chose early release. Laura Pasko, 12, stated, “My reason for an earlier release was to be able to put in more hours at work. The extra money and time came in handy for my college ex¬ penses.” With other seniors choosing the option of graduation, Jamie Spence, 12, stated, “My main reason for early graduation was to start my college education at Purdue Calumet.’’ For many students though, graduating in Jan¬ uary was very difficult. When that last day of being with friends and teachers came to an end, it was not easy. Tammy Benefiel, 12, was one who knew the feeling well. She was about to be late for the last bus ride home of her high school years. As she looked up at her photography teacher and adviser of three years, she said “Well, 1 guess this is it. Thanks for everything.” by Michelle Stiltner Justin Sarkey -NHS 2,3,4; OEA 2.3; German 4; Letter winners 3,4; Basketball 1.2.3,4; Academic Letterwin- ners 2,3,4 Bernice Scheme —OEA 4; N-Teens 1,2,3.

High school years are definitely the best years of your life. The whole world is waiting for you the day you graduate. Students find out quickly how hard it is to become an adult, maintain a job you like and be happy. You’re hit hard with decisions of all sorts. You must stop and think before you get on the wrong road. Trying to decide what it is want to do for the rest of your life takes a lot of time and planning. You must choose something that you won’t dread doing every day. Start small and work your way up to the top. It is not easy to stick with it 100 percent, but if you want to get anywhere, there’s no other way to do it. If you find yourself not putting 100 percent into your job it’s not a job you will go anywhere in. A job should be interesting to you; it should be something you want to learn more about. Learning makes a job more in¬ teresting to you, and you will take time to understand it clearly. When you understand something more clearly, it is not as dull to perform, and even doesn’t seem like a job. Ask your employer frequent questions about certain problems you come across. The more you know the better off you are. Take time and careful planning to plan a bright and successful future for yourself. The world is growing bigger and tougher each day. It is harder for the young to adopt to the situations while becoming responsible adults in this crazy world. Life, love and suc¬ cess is not available as a course in high school or college. The only single way to successful¬ ly deal with these frightful problems is simply to believe in yourself and set some goals to shoot for. Remember life is only as good as you make it, so make it good.

Students waited three years for this to happen. That first day of school the Class of ’89 walked into LC and said, “We’re upperclassmen.” Maybe the feeling of superiority only lasted a few seconds, but to many students it was well worth the wait. “I loved being an upperclassman; we had a feeling of authority and position in the school,” said Karen Talarek, 11 . As freshmen and sophomores, students were so-called nobodies. But when one reached that junior level, he knew he was somebody, even if he was the only one that knew it. For some, it could have even been considered a boost to one’s self confidence. No longer did the student fear the “upperclassmen.” Unfortunately even after becoming an upperclass¬ man, some students were still thought to be a little fresh¬ man by some. “I just looked forward to being able to call myself an upperclassman, but on the first day of school, I discovered that over half of the Freshman Class was taller than me. At least I knew that I was a junior and belonged to the Class of ’89,” said Tina Davis, 11. by Jennifer Palko Stkora Dave Grabske and Anne Mason take a break during their English class to talk with their friends about the soaps Frank Abel Mike Adams Robbin Akers Jeff Alger Robert Allen Marc Anderson Terry Anderson Tom Antol Tricia Anzur Dan Arndt Matt Ashcraft Brian Aspan Kevin Bailey Tammy Bailey Rich Balka Lisa Banter Jim Barbick Tonya Barnes Gna Barnett Wendy Barnett Nicole Barnhouse Tracy Bar sic Marci Barton Andrea Basting Dawn Belford Rebecca Belicek John Benda _ 76 Ab-Be Jeff Bennett Kim Berryman Michael Bertucci Lisa Bethel Paula Betts Stephanie Biancardi Kim Bieker Patricia Biesen Chris Bishop Tina Bitner Laura Bixler Dawn Blackmer Steve Blair Mark Blaze Jennifer Blissmer Laura Bloom Jennifer Boleski Lisa Bolz Gen Boren Jennifer Borroel Amy Boske Diane Botruff Alan Brich Jennifer Brickey Jennifer Brink Stacia Brister Deanna Britton John Britton Tim Brown Ken Brozak Jim Bruner Brett Budzius Brett Burbage Jennifer Burgridge Dave Burhans Tina Burke Nathan Burleson Susan Burnett Jennifer Busch Peter Caccavallo Raemell Cadle Kelly Calton Matt Campbell Thespena Cappas Dan Carnahan Kathleen Carroll Kathryn Carroll Kelly Carro ll Sandra Ceniceros Joseph Cerenzia Phil Cher Patrick Christofferson Rick Cichocki Brenda Coffelt Danielle Colby Chris Coleman Kilane Collins Wayne Collins Tammy Cook Brian Cotner Allison Covey John Craig Cammie Cramer Be-Cr 77 Matthew Cross Kathleen Csoka Deanna Csomo Pete Curran Kristina Davis Shannon Dawson Rachel Deacon Cynthia Deakin Lisa Deakin Robert Deakin David DeVries Danette Dicken Angela Dills Cathy Dimovski Debbie Dorcik Renee DTOzynski Andy Dudek Jean Duggan Timothy Dustin Jeff Eatinger Sheri Eaton Matthew Ebert Jennifer Eckhardt Scott Eckhardt Tina Edwards Keith Elder Dave Engel Dana England Todd Erdelac Michael Extin Luke Fagan Bob Farmer E.

Band leaders Burleson and Dudek worked together creating their own music and lyrics. “First we thought of a basic theme for a song, then we put it together in parts,” they commented. The band played for different high schools, middle schools, and local parties. “Not only is a band hard work, but it was expensive. Being in a band takes a lot of time and was a lot of work,” stated Dudek.

Welcoming these new privileges, the junior class rejoiced but found their pockets empty. Many students turned to the want ads and searched for prospec¬ tive employers. Sheri Ketelaar, 11, found her source of income at Sha- key’s Pizza in Highland. “My main reason for applying was to earn money to pay for my car. Ketelaar kept busy filling the buffet and cooking the food during the four days a week she worked. Curtis McCrary, 11, spent about 20 hours of his week working at Sears at Southlake Mall. “I really liked my job because I got money for doing easy things. McCrary’s responsibilities included ringing up sal es, putting stock on display and keeping the men’s department clean. Elli Reichelt, 11, applied to Meridian Nursing Center and became the nightime receptionist one day a week every other week. She closed the building, typed and filed. “I had to be more organized to keep the same grades,” she said. Being part of the working crowd helped juniors enjoy the privileges that came with a driver’s license, brought on more responsibility and put money in the pocket. by Kim Hambright Laura Williams puts the final touches on a hot dog at Bozo’s Hot Dogs.

Ross was invited to become a member of the 4-H Honor Court this summer for her achievements in the conservation field. Ross was very active in 4-H. During the past seven years, Ross submitted an average of 20 projects a year to 4-H. At one 4-H Awards Ceremony, Ross received awards for accomplishments in Public Speaking, Demon¬ strations, Junior Leaders, Best-Overall Display in Insects, Honor Court, and Conservation Award. She also won the most active club member. Ross got involved with 4-H seven years ago. “I used to go to the Lake County Fair and see the 4-H projects. At the 4-H building, the 4-H leaders gave me a pamphlet that told me how to join,” said Ross. Although 4-H took up a good portion of Ross’ life, she was also involved with other groups. She participated in Girl Scouts and took dancing lessons at Jeanne’s School of Dance. At LC, she was a member of the Pep Club and SGA, as well as a representative of the N-Teens and Junior Class Cabinet Secretary. Behind all of Ross’ accomplishments, there was still time to participate in the usual high school activities. ”1 love to shop, talk on the phone, and go out with friends,” Ross stated. by Gayle Wozniewski Chosen to receive the 4-H Conservation Award at the Lake County Fair.

Finally, the bell rang, and 4,400 feet stampeded the halls of LC. It was Dec. 18, the last day of school before the two-week Christmas vacation. Excitement was in the air and everyone was looking forward to the fun and relaxation that the next 16 days held. Many students had plans to pack up their bags and head out of state. Ever wonder what it would be like to spend Christmas in Australia? Dan Arndt, 11, can tell you. He spent three weeks there traveling throughout the continent. The highlight of Kathy Woldt’s 11, trip to Hawaii was her perfor¬ mance in the pregame and halftime show at the Aloha Bowl. When asked if she was looking forward to her trip she replied, “Very much! I practiced my dance techniques daily to train myself for the festivities. It was a truly exciting experience and a tremendous honor.” Other places that were among the many visited by LC students were Arizona, Kentucky, and Michigan. For the other 75 percent of students who did not vacation, 25 percent spent most of their time at home, while 63 percent visited with friends. Jenni Koch, 11, seemed to sum up the question of where time was spent with friends by stating, “The question is not where, but where not!” The largest percentage planned on going to the mall, and parties came in a close second at only five percent less. Movies and skiing were both popular choices of students. But basically the comments portrayed the idea “anywhere but school!” by Crystal Yednak, Holly VanVleck, Jennifer Wescott, Gillie Jones.

Modeling clothes was not the only project for Reichelt in the State Fair. Reichelt presented different crafts in categories such as forestry and cake decorating, also. “Although 1 modeled in the Fashion Revue, I also had clothing judged for construc¬ tion and workmanship,” said Reichelt. Reichelt has competed in the local competition for seven years. As Reichelt said, projects are not the only thing that the club does, there are junior leaders to aid the adults, and special trips and workshops are awarded for certain pro¬ jects. There are also groups like the 4-H Choir that perform at the State Fair and other special events. Reichelt was awarded a four-day trip to Purdue for an event called Round-Up. 4-H members stayed in dorms, have parties, learn about college life, and attend a few classes, ’ stated Reichelt. On the last day of Round-Up, Reichelt sang with the 4-H Choir in the Elliot Hall of Music.

Patti, who had her first “art” exper¬ ience when she was five drawing fruit with the babysitter, plans to go into the difficult field of illustration and fine arts at the Art Academy in Chicago, “I think any art field is pretty competi¬ tive, but I think Ms. O’Connor is really teaching me a lot. 1 know I’m good, but I’m not the best. There are tons of people out there who are better than me, yet there are tons out there who are worse than me, too.” “I draw anything that interests me, whether it be a still life or a person. I like pastels, pen and ink, and watercolor; I’ll take suggestions but I don’t like criticism. If like friends or relatives say they like my work, I try not to let it go to my head, but if a stranger says he does, it means a lot. Describing herself, Patti added, “I’m very sensitive and mysterious. I don’t think that my real self comes out. But my real self comes out in my work.’’ by Karen Talarek Patt Biesen works hard to complete her sketch drawing during art class. 9 UVi Sc-St 85 Jenny Stelter Dan Stamper To A Different Drummer Erica Hanson, 11, was involved in speech team and LCTG. She took French courses at Purdue Calumet and music lessons from Delores Quint. Her French, German, and drama classes took up a great portion of her time. After high school, Erica plans to go to college to study sociology and international affairs. Erica commented, “I’ll probably spend most of my time studying overseas; especially, in France and Germany.” After college. Erica would like to work some of the time in another country, in fields of communication, translation, and relations. Erica said, “I really want to work with people. I could do a job, as long as I work with a lot of different people. I am confident that I will find what I want.” Last year during May, Erica was with a date at the top of the John Hancock Building; her date overheard a family speaking French. The family, the Cayrols, from Montpelliere (South France), were very glad to meet her, for they hadn’t met any French-speaking people in the United States. Six weeks later. Erica wrote them a letter. They responded with a book and a letter stating that Erica could stay with them in France whenever she wanted. Erica commented on school, “I have a more serious attitude than before. I used to think that it never really mattered what grades I got. Now, I realize, for the first time, that grades are all part of the game. Grades still mean less to me than to others: I’d rather learn. I have a big fault, if I don’t like something I don’t try as hard as I should.” Erica also believes, “What makes me really mad is prejudging, it hurst when people don’t want to get to know me. I don’t like petty jealousy or harrassment, either.” “I have a motto I like from ‘The Little Prince’ by Saint Exupexny— ‘One only sees with the heart, the essential is incisible for the eyes.’ ” by Patti Biesen Erica Hanson and Andy Dudek perform a scene from the fall Lake Central play “Wait Until Dark.

She planned to travel to Belgium, Europe, to experience their lifestyle, their kinds of people, and their overall atmosphere. “I’m going because I want to experience their lifestyles. I guess I want and need a change,” Tascioglu admitted. Tascioglu planned to stay one year in Belgium. Belgium is a French-speaking country and Tscioglu said, “I’ve taken French for two years now, but I might have trouble at first. I think I’ll adjust though.” Adjustment for some people is hard and scary, but Tas¬ cioglu had a different outlook. “I think I will adjust okay. I know when I first go to Belgium, I will definitely be scared. It’s going to take me awhile before I become adjusted to the language, school, culture, and my friends. All I need is pa¬ tience and my brains and I’ll be fine.” Family and friends are an important part of growing up for people who really need them there. For Tascioglu to not have her family or any friends by her side might be a little tough. Tascioglu stated, ‘‘Since my friends and I are so close, it’s going to be weird not being around them for a whole year. I will definitely miss them.” “This is going to be one of the best experiences in my life, something I won t forget. I hope by going away for a year, it will give me an opportunity to see how other people live and adjust to their way of life. One day I hope people can look at my experience as something anyone can try for.” TasciogJu shows her friends the town in which she will visit during the 1988 school year.

Cox and Erica Hanson, 11 won first place in the speech meet November 7th for their duo drama, ‘‘Night Mother.” In order to win first place, Cox and Hanson had to act their skit in three rounds. The duo competed against four people in each round and received first place. Besides helping win a first place speech award, Cox was also a member of the Indiana All-State Choir which was the top 250 high school students, selected by their ability to sing and sight read music at Griffith High School. To audition, choir students were required to select a piece of music from the ISSMA First Division list and sing it in front of a group of judges. After that, the choir members went to a different room where a judge would choose a song and the student was judged on rhythm and accuracy.

For some people, though, birds were a favorite pet. “Birds are a pretty big part of my life,” said Maureen Rusbasen, 10. “I have always had them. Also, they are fun to have.” Birds were difficult to take care of. Although, not a lot of love and attention were needed, constant clean¬ ing was. Rusbasen said, “It takes about an hour and a half to clean all of their cages. We had three parrots, six cockatiels, five parakeets, and one conure with seven cages. We’ve had them from one to seven years. I have to clean all of them and wash the dishes and feed them.” Rusbasen said her family originally started out with one parakeet and liked it so much they got another and another and is now into breeding. “Soon we moved on to parrots and now we breed cockatiels, said Rusbasen. When you have so many pets, parents must be supportive. “I guess my mom didn t mind, said Rus¬ basen, “since she owns half of them.” by Lisa Pasko Kelly Malkowski Milorad Marich Nancy Markos Brain Markovich Mike Markovich Tracey Marlowe Dennis Martinez Luis Martinez Joshua Masnick Andrew Matthews Audrey Maycock Matt Maze Paul McBride Kim McCauley Le-Mc 93 Chad McClellan Joseph McCormick Annette Mclnnis Jennifer McMahon Emi Mergesky Tonya Merrow Katrina Middleton Janet Mihelic Shawn Millard Tracy Millard Dawn Miller Greg Mleczko Dennis Moeller Sam Monk Jamie Morris Eric Morse Michael Moser Anthony Moulesong James Mshar Joseph Munson Sharon Murphy Brian Nagy Doug Natzke Thomas Naumoski Kimberly Nava Gina Negrelli Michael Nicksic John Niewinski Punkers Trends may come and go, but the way students dressed reflected their attitude. It represented a sense of individual¬ ity. Many students represented this attitude by dressing punk. Sharon Burroughs expressed her view, “It gives you the freedom to express the way you feel — not having to follow any certain rules.” Others believe punks dress strange and absurd, but punks didn’t seem to be bothered by others opinions. Seda Turan, 10, stated, “I wear what I want to. It doesn’t bother me when people put me down.” Jamie Morris, 10, ex¬ pressed, “It’s not what you wear or the people you hang around, it’s your inner emotions, and your clothing is just one way to express them.” Music punks listen to was the biggest influence in their style. Most punks basically listen to the same groups. Their music varied from new-wave to speed metal. “I like strange sounding music,” commented Lale Johnson, 10, “As for bands, it’s endless.” Most punks agreed on bands such as: The Cure, Souzie and the Banshees, Ministry, G.B.H., Sex Pistols, and Depeche Mode. Others felt the punk movement was not necessary. To some people punks were not easily understood. One student stated, “ I disagree with their clothing and their hair. They obviously suffer from lack of attention. Everyone is an indi¬ vidual, why do they try to look different from everyone else?” by Christy Burgess Dan Kopton, 10, expresses himself through his punk haircut.

Her name is Robin Scholler, 10, and she was with The Chicago City Ballet. Until about fifth grade, it was just “ballet,” but as she went into the sixth grade, she had a prima ballerina as an instructor, and from then on she’s been trying to reach her instructor’s level of performance. It was accomplished when she was accept¬ ed into The Chicago City Ballet. Scholler’s life had begun to change. Scholler did not have time for friends like she used to have, but she had her ballet career. Scholler hoped to become a professional dancer or open her own dance studio, then she could be an instructor, and in turn, be admired by her studdents. But for now, her ballet classes were enough to worry about. After playing Clara in “The Nutcracker,” Scholler decided to take constant classes to try to better herself for auditions and anything that came up last summer. Scholler took lessons at Ellis DuBoulay in Chicago. She used to go to Masi Ballet in Chicago, but when she got sick with mono, Masi Ballet gave her some problems, and that’s when she found the studio, Ellis DuBoulay. Scholler also got involved with modeling. She got portfolios done and interviews with upper-class agencies in Chicago. Modeling and ballet took up a lot of Scholler’s time. “It’s hard to go around all the agencies and still have time to dance,” Scholler, 10, said, “but all in all, I wouldn’t give anything up—I love it too much!” Robin Scholler. 10. look like a ballerina, smiles like a model Michael Novak Karen Nowak Steve Ochs Lynn O’Hara Allen Oliver Lance Olson Bryan Olszewski Fred Oosterhoff Kristine Orosz Joel Orozco Carrie Osborn Thomas Ovanek Cemal Ozdemir Jennifer Palka Amy Palko Lisa Panczuk Gayle Pankiewicz Patricia Panouses Lisa Pasko Rachel Patai Tanya Patitsas Tina Pawlik Kim Peek Vanessa Peifer Brittany Persin Shelly Peters Tamara Peter sen No-Pe 95 Pete Petrovski Glenn Peyton Robert Pieters Richard Plesek David Plinkuhn Jennifer Poczatek Mike Polizzotto Steve Poole Joe Popiela Jill Portman Pat Powers Candace Premeske Christopher Price Kathy Prieto Stacy Pruitt Kerri Pullo Elaine Pynakker Kim Raab Darren Racine Scott Redington Bryan Reichelt Amy Reid Tracy Reitz Robert Remesnik Nick Restauri Matt Rhyme Linda Rietman Jennifer Riley Diana Rinck Jennifer Rivera Christine Roe Amy Rogers Alan Roper Edward Rosenwinkle Maureen Rusbasan Cindy Rush Jeremy Rutz Lisa Rybicki Chris Sabaitis Mark Sakaguchi Holly Saka Sandra Salinas Casey Sang Jasminka Sarac Diana Sasic Chuck Sawyer Scott Schaefer Robin Scholler Daniel Schonert Gretchen Schultz Edward Scott Paul Scott Karen Seehausen Raymond Seely Urvi Shah Jim Shearer Carrie Shindle Chris Shofroth Dawn Shoue Shannon Simms Tina Simon Colleen Siurek Jamie Skolsky 96 Pe-Sk Michael Skorupa Relva Sliwa Robert Smith Stephanie Smith Eric Snyder Michelle Snyder Yamil Sobh Showing her flexibility, Sharie Murphy, 10. does a backbend. She dreams of 92. Dreaming ’92 When the bell rang to signal the end of the day, some students became involved in the extracurricular activities offered at LC. Oth¬ er students went to relax. Then, there were the select few who trained in sports outside of school hoping to make their dreams come true. Two of these students were Brittany Persin, 10, and Sharie Murphy, 10, who hoped to become Olympic gymnasts. Persin had been studying gymnastics since she was four years old. Her coaches were Paul and Shannon Zarris in South Holland. She trained, practiced, and perfected her gymnastics routines and techniques five days a week for three hours. “The hard work really paid off,” com¬ mented Persin. She competed in 15 meets a season. According to Persin, “A season was usually about five or six months, but the more you qualify the further you went.” She won over 200 awards including a third place in Class One State Championship. “The one thing that kept me inspired was my goals,” stated Persin. Her first goal was to go “elite” and qualify for the Olympics, She also dreamed of receiving a scholarship at UCLA;’ then, she would like to coach. Sharie Murphy also practiced gymnastics with Brittany in hopes of getting a full college scholarship. She was in gymnastics for about ten years and was inspired to continue be¬ cause of her drive to compete. “My coaches incouraged me to compete and Brittany al¬ ways challanged me,” commented Murphy. Murphy has placed sixth on her floor rou¬ tine and seventh in the All-Around Competi¬ tion at AAu Junior Nationals in Iowa and second place All-Around in the Valentine Classic in Illinois. She also took first in the beam, floor exercise, vault and All-Around in the White River State Games. Murphy also paid a price for her hard work. She had many injuries, such as a sprained ankle and many back problems. “Sometimes it was discouraging, but I hoped to remain in gymnastics for another six years.’ Sk-So 97 Jennifer Sopko Kent Sorenson Wendy Spencer Mike Stacey Kimberly Stack Ken Staniszewski Fred Stavitzke Chad Stevenson Susan Stinson Brian Stofko Tim Stofko Robby Stone Dawn Strug Brad Stutler Jennifer Sullivan Bill Suminski Angie Sury Guy Swenson Sabine Swett Candice Szany Scott Taiga Melissa Tanchevski Mark Tanis Mine Tascioglu Tammy Terrill Donald Thompson Robert Thrall Aaron Tobias Jason Traina David Travis Bryan Trippeer Lisa Trzeciak Tina Tunon Seda Turan Chris Tuskan William Tutlewski Shelly Upchurch Angela Utesch Rhonda Valentino Vetsy Vavouris Holly VanVlek Leposova Vavan Sophomores Usually, one did not hear about the sophomore cabinet very much, but it was not because they did not do anything. The cabinet, composed of sopho¬ mores and the sponsors, Tom Clark and Joan Loden, decided on fun¬ draisers to do in the year. Those fundraisers included a car wash and a candy sale. The money that came from these sales was used to pay for Raise Money graduation ceremonies, junior prom, and senior banquet. Besides the fundraisers, the cabi¬ net also participated in the home¬ coming festivities, such as the yell, decorating contest, and making a float for the parade. The cabinet hoped to go on more field trips during the year. by Suzy Kirby The sophomore Homecoming poster was displayed at the game. 98 So-Va BOUNCE THE BRICKIES I Yvette Venable Kim Villarreal Melinda Voss Matt Vranjes Warren Vukadinovich Tara Waechter Jason Wagner Robert Waite Greg Walczak Jeff Waiesch Daniel Watkins Jeff Watson Matthew Welch Matt Whalen Vince Widlowski Scott Wiley Stacy Williams Joel Williamson Susan Wilmoth Dan Winkler Dwain Winstead Lisa Witt!

Laura Logan, 10, a JV volleyball player, practiced with a league called “Greased Lightning. ' “I’m in this league because next year I feel that it will help me to feel more comfortable playing in varsi¬ ty,” said Logan. Practices were every Monday and Fri¬ day night for two or more hours. “We run for about 15 minutes,” said Logan. “Then we do drills and scrimmage to practice offence and defense.” “Greased Lighten¬ ing,” also worked heavily on hitting, pass¬ ing, setting, and diving. “Greased Lightening” involved play¬ ers from all schools, from T.F. South to Bishop Noll. Various tournaments were played on Saturdays and Sundays. “The coach was a friend of Ms. Kindt, and our practices were held in Lansing and by Morton,” said Logan. “ Greased Lighten¬ ing” is a good experience for me and real¬ ly helps my endurance.” Logan also added that her experience at the sectional games will prepare her for the faster pace of Varsity games especial¬ ly against older, more-experienced girls. Logan said, “The Sectional games were not only good practice but they didn t even interfere with other sport activities like track and with my school work be¬ cause the games were mainly played on Sundays.” Lisa Pasko Laura Logan prepares to hit the volleyball.

This was a new approach for some of the freshmen to get out and have a good time. “The Omni dance, compared to the dances we had at Grimmer, had better music and more variety, Laura Paris, 9, stated. Michelle Britton, 9, also said, “It’s more exciting than going to the mall. It’s a different change of pace.’ These dances proved to be more exciting than the every day weekend of going to the mall or going to see a movie. These Omni Jams also gave freshmen time to expand their horizons by meeting people from other schools, and more peo¬ ple from their own class. Paris added, “It’s easy to meet people because you can just walk up to someone and start dancing.’’ “Since there is no other place for teenagers to hang out and dance, we look forward to Friday nights at Omni, and so do some of our friends,’’ Britton and Paris agreed. Laura Paris and Amy Reid fill up on food after a long run.

Beginning her scientific studies in fifth grade in the botanical field, Woz¬ niewski has received in her past science fair projects the C A ST, award, the Gyte Memorial Scholarship award, the Indiana Mathematics Teacher’s award, and the Chancellor’s Award. Wozniewski has won various medals, certificates, ribbons, microscopes, and cal¬ culators for her work in the biology field. Wozniewski’s ultimate goal is to have her projects appear at Internationals. Being only a freshman with a 4.2 grade point average and the first LC student to re¬ ceive the Kleckner Science Award, Woz¬ niewski has left her options open for col¬ leges and science fairs. “I feel qualified for the award.

You look up to realize that you’ve become a victim of the Wrath of Rarick. All of his students knew of Mr. Bob Rarick’s many tricks. They also knew of the water bottle that he kept under his desk that initiated students as victims. Bill Wleklinski, 9, was added to Rarick’s list one day while leaving his class. Rarick squirted him over the pants. Wleklinski said, “Everybody said, ‘Hey, man, what happened to your pants? .’’ Francie Borroel, 9, had a similar experience. She was squirted while trying to keep a friend’s note from being read in front of the class. Borroel stated, “It was no big deal. I wore a sweater that day so the water was not that noticeable.” Rarick’s students said that it did not really bother them because they would seek revenge. Rarick defended himself by stating that he only does it to break the boredom and to wake his students up. by Crystal Yednek Mr Bob Rarick keeps his students from sleeping by an occasional squirt in the face. 104 Jo-Kr Jill Kuglin Sandra Kulchawick Dan La Belle Tony Laborde Jennifer Labus David Langfield Brenda Laski Nada Latinovich Rich Latulip Melody Lawson Carlo Lazzaro Krista Leicht James Lessner Sandra Lewis Bridget Liden Lesley Likens Kristi Linz Justin Lira Nathan Lollis Vickie Long Dawn Longoria Patricia Lopez Steven Lopez Paul Lukso Stephanie Lyons Richard Magdziak David Majchrowicz Charles Markley Rachel Marks Jeremy Martin Angelica Martinez Cate Mason Nicole Matlock Adam Matthews Dawn Mazanik Mitchell Maze Michael McBride Sean McCarthy Kevin McCauley Kathleen McCoy Michelle McCrary Robert McDowell Ryan McEwen Kimberly McGee Connie McKinney Michael McNeil Michael McNeill Eduardo Mercado Diane Metlov Cheryl Mickey Robert Mihelic Erika Miksich Dave Miller Donald Miller Nikki Miller Nedra Mills Amy Mitchell Renee Mitchell Goria Moczamik Lisa Moore Carrie Moran Jon Morton Stephanie Moseley Ku-Mo 105 Out of Breath Imagine yourself, with exhausted effort and desire in your fatigued body, barely a half mile away from the long awaited finish line. Grateful that there aren’t any hills ahead, you try to pump your legs faster to catch the runner ahead of you. As you cross the finish line, the pride of St. John devours you. Running AAU, you decide, does have some glorious moments to it. AAU, the St. John Track Club, helped a few runners keep in shape and also keep the sense of competition when not in season. “We practice four days a week,” said Mia Kozel, 9, a cross-country runner. “I’ve been in AAU since I was eleven.” Competing in Birmingham, Alabama, AAU made it down to Nationals. Kozel said, “Although we had been training in cold weather, and it was warm in Alabama, we tried not to let the definite weather change affect us. We still remained hopeful.” Over all Kozel placed third for her age group. “AAU was fun,” said Kozel. “When we went to Alabama we didn’t just run, we also went to the malls and got to be good friends.’ by Lisa Pasko Mia Kozel stretches her leg muscles before track practice.

The water is cold.” “Just dive in; you’ll get used to it.” “Okay, here it goes.” This was a dilemma most freshman had to face at one time or another. Every other six weeks, they found them¬ selves facing that dreaded pool. Maybe what they really dreaded was not the time spent in the water, but the time spent getting ready to continue the day after swimming a few laps and playing water polo. Adam Vela, 9, said, “Swimming wasn’t too bad. I mean, I don’t really enjoy swimming laps or anything, but it was one of my easier classes.” On the other hand, Nikki Gill, 9, had a totally different point of view. “Now don’t take me wrong, I love swimming and diving, but it is impossible to get ready all over again in 20 minutes. I spend half the time waiting for an outlet.” So, it was not the plar water that thwarted the fresh¬ man swimmers, but the rituals taken after swimming. Kim Cosmo, 9, added, “I takes me over an hour to get ready at home, but here, 1 get 20 minutes. The girls say the kids in my next hour class teased me and told me I looked like a drowned rat, but after they found out how much fun swimming was, they stopped.” by Jen Palko Several of the new freshmen enjoy a free hour In the swimming class they were required to take. New Friends One of the biggest adjustments of becoming a fresh¬ man was meeting students from other schools. Because of the old middle school rivalries, some students were reluc¬ tant to quickly become friends with their former oppo¬ nents. “I was a little nervous at first about meeting people from other schools, but once I met them, they became some of my good friends,” said Erin Freeland, 9. As the year went on, many friendships developed among students from other schools. “Once when I was talking to a girl from Grimmer, we told each other the stories that we used to hear about each other’s school, and we just laughed,” said Tina Apostol, 9. In middle school some students thought that they would never be¬ come good friends with their rivals, but many of these students changed their minds once new friendships devel¬ oped. Although many students gained new friends, they did not forget their old ones. “I did become friends with a lot of people from other schools, but I still hang around with my old friends a lot,” said Kim Cosmo, 9. Some students felt that meeting students from other schools would be the hardest part of being a freshman, but as many discoverd, they had nothing to worry about. “When school started, I realized that the only thing that I had to worry about was my classes,” said Bonnie Besch.

Bare feet punched through the air as five-foot-tall Angela Wolf- man, 9, did a round house kick toward an imaginary opponent. Sweat drenched her blue karate shirt and dripped from wet strands of hair that had fallen out of her banana clip. The sound of her breath was loud against the counting of her sensei (teacher) as the class did a series of powerful kicks and punches. Wolfman had been a student of the Uliana School of Karate for the past year and a half. Out of 11 belts, she was a brown belt, only four from a black belt. She went to class three times a week, for an hour and a half each time. The class was a strenuous series of exercises as well as class discussion of terminology and performance. Her sensei stressed not only the strength involved, but the concentration and mental aspect of karate. “Working hard pays off. You feel pretty good after you break a brick. You think, WOW!” she remarked with enthusiasm. What has karate done for her? “1 know that 1 have to put out 100 percent. It teaches me how to behave. My sensei also stresses good grades. Our report cards are checked every six weeks, and if we do poorly, we re not allowed to continue our lessons.” Wolfman plans to continue her classes for as long as she can, because she enjoys the work and the accomplishments that she can get in karate. by Gillie Jones Angela Wolfman practices one of her karate kicks for her coach She practiced at Omni 41 to stay in shape Sn-Tav 104 A Frosh Life?! Upon arrival at high school, the fresh¬ men started over on the bottom of the totem pole and worked their way up one more time. Being a freshman in a new school took a lot of adapting to. Adding to these problems, frosh were ridiculed al¬ most every day for the fact that they were freshmen. Allison Kalish, 9, stated, “Ev¬ eryone has to be a freshman one time, so why ridicule them?” In general, the freshmen liked the large class for more opportunities to make more friends. “There were more athletic teams to choose from,” said Kalish. “There was a wide variety of clubs to join to be able to have more fun,” said Sabina Kangrga, 9. A freshman knew that probably he was the youngest in the school and had the most days of school left.

As he arrived on the scene in the operating room, he asked the nurse in charge about the problem. She told him that it was something that was more difficult to repair than anything the doctor had ever faced. Apparently, the patient was bleeding from the wrist. He had cut his wrist while retrieving his coat from his school locker! The operating room staff pumped new blood through the patient’s body and he came around. The doctor said, calmly now, “I think he’s going to make it—this time.” There was no doubt that their victim was a student at LC who had a locker in E hall or along the library wall. These lockers drew blood from many students last year. Because of the crowded hallways, students were forced to fight to reach their lockers. Most of these students had honest intentions. They needed to catch the bus, be on time for detention, or participate in an after school activity. Then, they faced the challenge of removing their belongings. The prongs on the inside of the lockers seemed to lie in wait until the moment they could strike. Also, the doors above each locker seemed to wait for just the right moment to fly open, hitting the student at the next locker in the head. Kerri Horvath stated, “As I was reaching into my locker to get my biology book, I ripped my fingernail on the hooks on the inside of my locker. An incoming freshmen experiences first week troubles with his locker and attempts to force it open.

Jr Member 4 6ct£ vUUe ytcicte The school year had already started long before late August for many teachers and adminsitrators who attempted to implement Out¬ come-Based Education (OBE) and mastery learning into the curricu¬ lum. Summer meetings, workshops, and curriculum planning aided those teachers across the Lake Cen¬ tral system by giving them a unique plan for teaching. Once tried in their classrooms, many like Ms. Carole Selund, English teacher, became ar¬ dent believers in the success of OBE. The main idea of OBE was giving more students a chance to learn through relearning where neces¬ sary. Those students who attained mastery early were rewarded with unusual and highly interesting moti¬ vational material. Selund claimed that once she had the program total¬ ly underway in her classroom, fail¬ ures for the six weeks’ periods were very low or bordering on none. Throughout the year much time was devoted to these new skills techniques. Authorities like Dr. Tom Guskey and Dr. John Chaplin, authorities in these fields, presented lectures, workshops, and inservice help to teachers. During its first year only some classes switched to these programs, while others made future plans and chose textbooks accord¬ ing to OBE guidelines.

This was due to one of the history teachers, Mr. Larry Cunning¬ ham. Students were assigned to research, cook and eat a frontier cowboy dinner. The menu was very unusual and the expressions on the stu¬ dents faces were extremely funny as they tasted these dif¬ ferent foods. According to Cunningham, the menu in¬ cluded Buffalo Stew. “Is this really made of buffalo chips? asked Cunningham. The menu also included Texas Jailhouse Chili (Hot! Hot! Hot!); Shoo-Fly Pie (only the cook knew what was in this); Vinegar Pie (sour); Loming grits (like eating sand); Jerky (like trying to eat an old leath¬ er belt); Cowboy beans (don’t get too far from the outhouse); Sour Dough biscuits (“moon rocks” — nickname) and Cowboy coffee which consist¬ ed of throwing a horseshoe into the coffee after awhile.

Although the year passed quickly, days before vacation were known to drag with students watching the clock in anticipation. Teachers struggled for new ideas or special ways to keep their students interested during those critical days. Mr. Tim Vassar, special educa¬ tion teacher, out of desperation prom¬ ised one class that if they came totally prepared, he would stand on his head for one hour the day before Easter va¬ cation. His students graciously allowed him to lean against a cabinet in the room when they each stood to recite their very prepared lessons. Vacations sometimes went unno¬ ticed for extracurricular groups. Play rehearsals and sports practices kept the building open during vacation time. Quiver staff met for a full day during Easter break to meet the 80-page deadline that they were to face the fol¬ lowing week. Pizza for lunch was the promise that brought staffers to VI11 on a vacation day,, only to learn that Little Caesar’s prices had gone up and they didn’t bring enough money.

Ttecv 7eac£e f i at t e Most of the faculty knew Ms. Joanne O’Connor, art teacher at LC for 12 years wanted to move to Arizona, but when school started in August, O’Connor was back in her room. With the sale of her home in Munster pending, she did not feel secure in leaving her stable position at LC and starting over elsewhere. She alerted the administration before school started that when her house sold, she would be leaving. For O’Connor, her dream of moving west to be nearer members of her family and starting a fulltime art business began to culminate in mid-September. Finally she received notice of the closing date, and she began to pack the remaining few items and make her final plans. In October nearly 50 faculty members gathered at Ms. Shirley Hewlett’s home to wish O’Connor farewell. A personal gift of a Kucina doll for her collection was chosen by the staff. After her move, she opened the Adobe Gallery, where she displays her own southwestern style artwork, needle¬ work, and sewing. Ms. Nancy Wilk, an elementary art teacher in the school system, came to re¬ place O’Connor for the remainder of the school year. “It is not easy to replace a teacher who had been teaching for 12 years. Students get accustomed to a teacher’s methods and approach to teach¬ ing. At first students were resistant to new ideas, but it has worked out pretty well,” commented Wilk. “I like and care about the students, but I wish some of them would have a more serious attitude to¬ ward class. The students have given me as much education as I have given them. It is great to see students get excited about their work and stimulated with ideas. This is one profession that you never get bored with,” concluded Wilk. Nancy Wilk, new art teacher, demonstrates her outra¬ geous and down to earth personality. She loves the pro¬ fession she teaches. Iy8 v Outrageous! Sandra Peters Physical Science; Swimming; B.S.; M S Al PUarak. Health; M S.

Participating in a sport meant partaking in many hard and long practices. Sometimes, it was necessary to just cut loose and let off some steam. The times like these were the ones that most athletes remembered long after the season was over. Cross country and track runners found that on their mile-long treks a slight detour could be taken; this detour led them through the McDonald’s drive-thru. With added ener¬ gy, they were ready to continue their run back to LC. Often after a big meet, team¬ mates would get together and act just a little crazy. LC guy swimmers took time out from their practices before sectionals and state to shave down, and of course fights broke out in the locker room. This was actually the part of the swimming season that most guy swimmers looked forward to. Even the basketball team this year took a leap into a different direction—UP. In the varsity game against Highland, Angelo Man¬ tis, 12, was flying high as he made his first dunk of the season; the LC fans went abso¬ lutely wild. A new star had been born—Air Mantis. It was a year of taking time out from the usual practice routines to keep excitement among team members. Practices seemed a little bit easier to endure after cutting loose for a short while and the sport seasons be¬ came semi-bearable. by Jennifer Palko Outrageous! 121 Senior Mark Pekez and opponent rush to meet the on Jeannine Kulig, 11, steps In and swings to knock a hit coming ball. that will hopefully help the Lady Indians advance. Bod EXPERIENCE TEAMS With a previous year that included two of the three individual state champions, the first ever team championship and undefeated re¬ cords, all LC athletes had a heavy load to carry. The season began with spectacular perfor¬ mances by the Boys’ Tennis Team. Coach Dean led the boys to an impressive 16-0 re¬ cord. Coach Kindt’s volleyball team sur¬ passed the previous year’s season being re¬ gional qualifiers. After a slow start the foot¬ ball team made the final round of the sectionals but lost to a tough Highland squad. Many teams faced a loss of leadership. The Boys’ Cross-Country Team, though hav¬ ing experience, lacked a consistent leader. They suffered through their season, still earn¬ ing the conference title and finishing tenth in semi-state. Plagued with injuries and inexpe¬ rience the Girls’ Cross-Country Team rallied together too late in the season but gained experience for the future. This was the case for Girls’ Swimming also. Coach Tonkovich’s girls, who finished thir¬ teenth at state, learned for the future. Tonko- vich, perhaps facing the heaviest burden, took his state champs back to state. Tonk’s team secured a far from disappointing fourth place finish. LC’s Hockey Club became the highest team finishers of the year with a second place finish. The team had hoped for a champion¬ ship but were proud of their accomplishment. The Boys Basketball team’s roller coaster season came to an end with a loss at regional. The boys met their defeat at the hands of Hammond High. Spring sports included state qualifiers Kathy Prieto, 10, and Laura Logan, 10, in Girls’ Track. Though it seems the teams failed in their quest to better their previous years’ accom¬ plishments, each knows that if 100 percent was given then that is all that anyone could expect of them. by Don Orban f % If ' 122 Highlights Steve Kozma, 12, attempts a shot early in the game to help build a lead on a tough Crown Point team.

Skateboarding, which had seen its renais¬ sance in the past few years, became more than a hobby for many people. A group of LC students banded together to form the “Tri- Town Skate Punks Team.” Team members were from Dyer, Schererville or St. John area and consisted of sophomores Davey Kats and Dan Kopton, juniors Kevin Bailey, Rich Balka, Matt Campbell, Matt Ebert, Jeff Motyll, and Jeff and Joe Zbell, as well as seniors Jay Grisafi, Jason Leisge, and Rob O’Sullivan. Members of The Tri-Town Team entered various competitions throughout the Mid¬ west. One such event held in Indianapolis was sponsored by the Maui Surf and Sport company. Motyll placed first in the street skating event by outmatching the competi¬ tion with a wide variety of maneuvers. Camp¬ bell followed placing in the top 10 for Tri- Town entrants. Another street skating event, held in Chi¬ cago, was again the proving ground for team Tri-Town. Again Motyll was able to make it to the finals but “1 had a second terrible run.” He said. However the top placing member this time was Kopton. Kopton took second to a tough group of skaters. The team practiced their street skating whenever and wherever conditions permit¬ ted. Ramp riding was usually done at Kop- ton’s or Motyll’s. Here they constructed 16x40 foot ramp with eight-foot peaks. When ramp riding only two people were al¬ lowed to ride at a time maximum. Safety pads were also worn on knees and elbows while helmets and gloves protected heads and hands in some cases. Skateboarding had its rewards besides the enjoyment of pushing your agility and brav¬ ery to its limits and walking away. Profession¬ al skaters like Christian Hosoi and Tony Hawk made thousands of dollars for endors¬ ing products (many of which bore their Grtsafi names) and competing in national events. The Tri-Town members would like to m ake it that far but were just content to skate for fun and when competing, collect whatever prizes they could. Motyll, for example, won a $50 certificate at a Maui Surf and Sport Shop for his first place effort which he used to buy various skating products. “I bought a skate bag and a good pair of gloves,” he added. Kopton won a set of “trucks” or the axles that connect the wheels to the board. Tri-Town sometimes skated with a team from Munster, and the competition was usu¬ ally friendly. When they skated, everyone tried to learn new tricks or just perfect older ones. Skateboarding took a quickness and daringness unique to that sport alone. Skateboarding had come a long way. Not only had the boards become more advanced, but the whole outlook on the sport. Many considered it a sport a few thought of it as a hobby and some believed it a fun way to flirt with danger. Whichever, skateboarding had come a long way since its “sidewalk surfing” days. by Don Orban Grisafi - - W Matt Campbell, 11. does an “Ollie to “cope” off one of the planters located behind Grimmer While at a contest held in Chicago.

OUT FOR a AND FUN Summer’s warmth and sunshine forced many people out of their state of cabin fever into the heart of the cool waters and crowded beaches. Smothered with tanning lotion, droves of people with bathing suits of every size and color flocked to lakes and pools ev¬ erywhere. While some just enjoyed casual swimming and tanning, others preferred to engage in the art of the variety of water sports available. To many being tugged at 25 mph on two small ski blades while balancing with a one- inch thick rope may seem frightening, but for a great number of people waterskiing was fun and a great thing to do in the summer. Waterskiing could be quite difficult at first. Kathy Huls, 10, said, “It took me about a month to learn to ski by myself. Once I did get up though, I loved it.” And once you did get up on two skis, many people found there was always more to learn, like skiing slalom (one ski), trick skiing (using shorter, wider skis with no blades), skiing dou¬ bles, or skiing the sharp slalom course. “Once when I was going through the course, I took a sharp turn around a ball and fell,” said Huls. “I did three flips. I came out with a few bruises.” Kneeboarding required less talent. All you had to do was hang on to the rope and be strapped to a plastic kick board as the boat speeds along. The real difficult thing was starting off. “The first time I tried to knee- board I tightened the rope too tight and when I fell I was trapped under the board for three or four seconds, but it seemed like minutes, ' said Huls. Tubing, which was laying on top of a usual¬ ly huge innertube and hanging onto its straps, was also enjoyed. Trying to accomplish 180 degree turns by leaning to one side as the boat swerves or trying to hit big waves and fly high in the air but still hang on are a few tricks any successful tuber liked to do. Lakes also had plenty of windsurfers if its waves were high enough, and if the fish were biting, fully-equipped fishermen gathered, too. Summer sports offered something to most everyone. As Scott Redington, 10, said, “The best times I’ve ever had were down in the south boating and skiing and just spend¬ ing the whole day partying on the water.” by Lisa Pasko Summer 127 Sophomore Stephanie Smith rounds a marker and turns up the course towards the finish line. Smith finished her first year running for LC with a greater experience for the future. UNDERCLASS POTENTIAL Team effort in clutch situations summed up the year for Girls’ Cross Country. The Indians, under Coach Don Bugaski, posted a season record of 5-3. LC also placed second in LSC and qualified for regionals. Sophomore sensation, Amy Reid, led the Indians to what some would say was a re¬ spectable year. “I reached my personal goal of 16:40 and bettered it with a personal best of 16:16,” said Reid. Reid was elected by her teammates as the MVP and was also nomi¬ nated to the second team All-Conference and second team All-Sectional Class of 1987. Reid was also the soul record holder for the sophomore class at LC. Although the Indians had a few incredible standouts, a team effort was what LC was really hungry for. Seniority played a big role in the girls’ season. Senior Gail Doner, battling an ailing injury, was limit¬ ed in her performances. That left the rest of the quite young and unex perienced team without a senior to idolize and look up to. Exciting and inspiring this young team was. Placing second in conference was quite an accomplishment for this raw and undisci¬ plined talent. Most of the team contended that conference was what inspiration was about. Being in a clutch situation had brought this team to a very rare togetherness. “Ev¬ eryone came close to their goals and ran in a big pack,” described Mia Kozel, 9. Kozel was elected Rookie of the Year and Laura Pa- cholski was named Best Mental Attitude while Lisa Pasko obtained Most Improved. Coach Bugaski commented, “Our girls worked hard and were enjoyable to coach.” Most agreed that the most important asset to the Indians success was the improvements made during the course of the year. The fu¬ ture of the Indians could be dependent of that important element of improvement. Coach Bugaski added, “I look forward to the contin¬ ued improvement of this young team.” by Chuck Noojin Scoreboard LC THEM 2nd Gavit Invitational 43 Chesterton 16 17 LaPorte 38 7th Rensselaer Invitational 12th New Prairie Invitational 3rd Lake Central Invitational 6th Thornridge Invitational 30 Munster, Andrean 36,68 32 Highland 25 41 Valparaiso 20 4th LSC 28 Bishop Noll, Merrillville 41,59 4th Sectional 12th Regional Record: 5-3 128 Girls’ Cross-Country Junior Kim Gorski strives to place high in the Rensselaer Battling a grueling hill, freshman Laura Paris continues Invitational Gorski helped the team through consistent to make her way through the course J 991 performances Jenny Poczatek, 10, pushes as she enters a turn Many times, time could be made up around corners.

Dealing with the young team, Coach Skorupa tried to pull together a dominant leadership. Hoping to make it to state for a second year in a row, he helped runners individually and spent almost an hour a day on mental preparation. BOYS’ cc Finishing first in conference with a 17:08, MVP runner Joel Hoffman. 11, said, “My greatest memory from this season is winning conference as a team and individually.” CONFERENCE Mike Weis, 11, said, ”1 feel this season could be summed up to be an inconsistent team. We had five different runners who were all at one time or another first runner. I was very inconsistent in my performances. I was first man for awhile, then once I was sixth.” The attitude of the team was lifted when they only lost to Valparaiso, third ranked, by a few points. Completely dominating the conference with a 1 -2-3-5 man finish, the team headed for state. Other runners who had achieved first run¬ ner position were Kyle Fraser, 11, Rich Bo¬ chnowski, 10, and John Kopeck, 11, who also received the Most Improved Award. Ko¬ peck said, “Some of my personal bests were finishing all-conference and all-sectional and also running a 17:02 at the Griffith Invitational.” Sectionals and regionals looked promising, but with lack of leadership as a problem, the team only scored fairly. They still however moved onto semi-state to finish off their sea¬ son with a tenth place. Voting Chuck Marley, 9, as Best Rookie and Mike Novak, 10, as Best Mental Attitude, the team looked onto next year with a vengeance.

The Indians, led by Coach Jill Kindt, fea¬ tured many ups and downs throughout the season. Also featured were many key victo¬ ries in tense pressure situations. LC kicked- off their season with a heart-breaking loss to Andrean in three sets. LC bounced back and went on to post a record of 24-11. At the head of the team, in attitude and performance, was Senior MVP Mary Fehl- berg. Fehlberg along with Senior Dawn Sta- vitzke were the team captains.

Though the Indians had trouble at the beginning of the year, as they progressed, they began playing as a team. As a result, LC started winning more games. When the Indi¬ ans needed it the most, their team unity pulled through. LC fought for the co-cham¬ pionship crown of the LSC and looked to¬ ward sectionals, where the dominant Crown Point Bulldogs were waiting. “They proved to them that we had talent,” contended Fehl¬ berg. LC upset Crown Point for the sectional title. “A very close relationship was formed,” explained Coach Kindt on the victory at sec¬ tionals. That relationship carried the Indians to the final game of regionals where LC’s streak came to a hault by losing to Bishop Noll in three long sets. But with the help of the Chris Bishop, 11,-Fehlberg attack and others; such as, seniors Mindy Sikora, Kim Lamott, Mary Jazyk, and also juniors Lynne Suroviak and Laura Williams, LC relished the success of the year. by Chuck Noojin GIRLS VOLLEYBALL —Row 1: J Kulig, D.

The torturing practices, the team’s determination, and the coach’s dedi¬ cation, all proved to be the key factors to their outrageous, undefeated season. It was just another year for the LC tennis team, until they really got going and realized what a good team they had. Having seven returning lettermen, it helped the team tre¬ mendously because the lettermen knew the rights and wrongs and what they were up against from the opposing teams. Joe Arias, 12, number one singles, stated, “This had to be the best team ever in LC history.” And it was. Their record was 14-0 and they won the first round of sectionals. It was an upset to the team and the coach, when they lost the third round of sectionals, but they still had their undefeated season to be proud of. “We went 16-0 and we won the first two rounds of sec¬ tionals, and then lost the championship 16- 1,” said Brent Paris, 12. The team’s determination and enthusiasm made the team what it was. Their practices were hard, but they were still determined to get through them, for if they wouldn’t have worked so hard, they wouldn’t have done as well as they did. “The practices were diffi¬ cult, but since we were in excellent shape, we handled the other teams,” stated Joel Baldin, 12 . Their enthusiasm was shown greatly as they strived to be number one. The more they won, the more enthusiastic they became about themselves and the fact of winning again. As the team’s enthusiasm rose, so did the winning matches. “The team and myself were determined to be number one this year. With all our practices, dedication, and hard work, I think we were number one. I think, overall, we accomplished a lot,” said Chip Steffey, 11, number seven doubles. The team did their best and gave LC, their coach, and themselves something to be proud of, an undefeated season for the first time in LC boy’s tennis history. This showed how dedicated and determined each player really was.

Playing JV to most athletes was a difficult concept to accept; especially, if you believed you had the strength to be playing Varsity. Being referred to as ‘‘scrub puppies” or ‘‘bench warmers,” JV athletes tried to prove to all on-looking crowds, that they were just as important and just as capable of some day being Varsity. For some, JV was an honor. Playing on the freshman football team and being moved up to JV was a great achievement. The feeling on a freshman team is one more of practice, knowing that the following year the competi- D Lacombc Cross country was a demanding sport, requiring much dedication of the runner.

Kris Orosz, 10, and Dana Hemann, 10, listen attentively. A. a tion for a spot on a JV team would be more difficult. Matt Gelon, 9, who played freshman football and was moved up to JV, said, ‘‘The best thing about the season was when 1 kicked my first extra-point against Munster. The worst was when LC lost to Highland. The team had a lot of spirit. When the team was down, we would help each other and never quit in hopes of that undefeated season.” JV was also a preparation for a harder level of sports. Playing JV volleyball and JV tennis also gave athletes a sharp taste as to what Varsity was like. Laura Logan, 10, a JV volleyball player, said, ‘‘Practice is rigorous and challenging, which gives you experience for Varsity.” During boys’ basketball season, the JV team had an important role: to play the oppo¬ nents for Varsity. Jason Taylor, 11, stated, ‘‘At times I liked playing JV. At practice Coach Svetanoff would tell me to play like I was Hunter Atkins; so. I’d be taking the shots and the center of the drives. Then at games, the other JV players would feed me the ball. It was great!” Although Varsity has always seemed most important, JV was not forgotten. Along with LC’s best were also the athletes who showed the determination and potential to also some day be the best. by Lisa Pasko and Jennifer Palko 136 JV feature o The pain of running a cross-country race knows no differ ence between a JV runner and a Varsity runner.

It was no different for the Girls’ Swim Team. The team, coached by Jim Tonkovich, had to swim from under the shadow of a previous years impressive undefeated record of 11-0. The girls met the challenge by matching the wins but suffered two losses to tough Val¬ paraiso and Lafayette Jefferson teams. Prominent members included Kim Bieker, Tricia Gluth, Angela Dills, Jenny Luban and Dorene Kruspe, along with the help of divers Nicole Jamrose. Susie Wilmoth and newcom¬ er Leann Jackowski. Together this mass of talented athletes pulled an impressive state finish at 23. The finish is more impressive when it is known that the team greatly lacked any senior leadership. As Kruspe put it, “Our team was really young. We really had no leadership. We had no seniors. Next year we’re going to surprise ourselves and do bet¬ ter.” Kruspe finished with a thirteenth and a seventh place finishes at the state meet. “Coach always said I could do it, but I didn’t believe him.” Kruspe added. Tonkovich once again helped the girls through the trying times of the season. As one commented, “Coach Tonk gives a lot of en- couragment and works us way above our po¬ tential so we got the most of our swimming.” With the coaching and resources available, the girls team should have no problem con¬ tinuing their successes in the future. by Don Orban _ 138 Girls’ Swimming Junior swimmer Kim Bieker performs the free style in Straining to keep up the pace, sophomore Jenny Luban one of the Lady Indians ' home meets fights her way to the front of the competiton in the 100m breast stroke Row 1: S Popiolek.

It wasn’t easy trying to regain the same kind of talent as many seniors graduated. “Obviously, we lost a lot of talent, ' said Coach Elmer Britton. “We had our work cut out for us.” And that’s exactly what the team had as they started playing on the field. The players’ dedication, concentration, and hard work is what mattered in the ’87 season. Offensive starters were Mark Evans and Kevin Nolbertowicz along with Fred Smack, all seniors. Defense had a lot of strong points, too. Two of them were Doug Schilling, 11, and Ron Davies, 12. “We play¬ ed outstanding ball, offense and defense,’’ Britton added. LC left Calumet to frown with a score 35-6. LC flared their way to victory with some thanks to Evans and Paul D’Angelo. Evans threw for 135 yards. “Playing against Highland and Munster were the highlights of the season,’’ said Brit¬ ton. LC blew Highland off the field 34-6. Homecoming gave the fans something to cheer about. D’Angelo scored two touch¬ downs, one for 15 yards, the other for 65. Evans completed seven of 24 passes. It was a close game but LC narrowly edged out the Griffith Panthers 32-30 and celebrated their third win. The Indians dominated Lowell 35-0 but lost key player D’Angelo because of a hip in¬ jury received when he was tackled on a patch of cement on the si deline. LC then beat Munster 31-7. In the first round of sectionals. LC crushed Lew Wallace with a 28-12 score. The second round of sectionals was much more sobering, however. Highland defeated LC for a second consecutive year with a score of 13-16 in their favor. The LC Indians dedicated a lot of hard work to the ’87 season as they tried to match the string of victories the ’86 team had man¬ aged. “This team came farther than any team coached before.

That did not put a total halt on the Lady’s season. They remained strong and improved their strategies a little bit more after each game. But there was still another downfall for the Ladies. There big¬ gest downfall was the loss to Whiting during Sectionals. Chris Bishop, 11, one of the Ladys’ star players, stated, “Our team had prepared very hard for this game all season and many factors contributed to our loss. Winning the Sectionals was one of our main goals throughout the season, but we just didn’t come through. The loss was not any¬ one’s fault because we learned to win as a team and lose as a team.” Sophomore Nicole Jamrose also stated, “They (the team’s wins) were very strong team efforts and over all strong performances.” JV lead a season full of spirit, skill, sports¬ manship, and triumph. Boasting a record of 13-2, they had nothing to be upset about. Each player played her games to her own potential, and it showed. “Our team played well together. We all knew what we were expected to do, and we did our best to achieve that,” stated Sandra Dinges, 10. JV reached the top of that hill and man¬ aged to stay there, as Varsity struggled hard but could not keep that same position. by Julia Borgia GIRLS’ VARSITY BASKETBALL-Row 1: S. Clark.

The Indians, pride stricken, were no ex¬ ception in 1988. Although not shown by their record of 12-12, LC still managed to pull out a year of surprise and determination headed by fourth year Head Coach Wayne Svetan- off. Svetanoff led the Indians to a post season co-conference and sectional championship. LC struggled through regular season play. Losing big games to important teams such as Merrillville. Crown Point and Bishop Noll. Al¬ though the Indians did show sparks of bril¬ liance, unity just wasn’t theirs during the reg¬ ular season. “We picked up the intensity and began to play together in post season,” com¬ mented senior Jim Wallace. Wallace sparked the Indians in sectionals by coming off the bench to lead all scorers. Pulling together towards post season play, the Indians surprised onlookers with win after nail-bitting win in sectionals. Considered the underdogs, LC set the pace by upsetting the Merrillville Pirates in the first match up of sectionals. The team then went on to defeat rival Crown Point and finally Highland for the IHSAA sectional title. “I feel we worked as a team, we didn’t have to depend on any one person. Each did their role as a player. It’s true we had our ups and downs, but we got the job done when we needed it,” explained senior Kevin Luce. After sectionals came the highly competi¬ tive spirit of regionals where LC’s momen¬ tum came to a heartbreaking stop with a first game defeat to Hammond. ‘‘I would like to have gone farther than we did. I’d still like to thank all the fans that backed the team all year,” added Wallace. LC’s pride flourished throughout the sea¬ son and really exploded during tournament time. LC fans dominated the attendance dur¬ ing sectionals and regionals, carrying the Indi¬ ans on emotion who were written off from the beginning. Great players such as Wallace, Luce, Angelo Mantis, 12, Steve Kozma, 12, and Brock Fehrman, 12, converted 1988 from a season on the downfall to a season on the brink. by Chuck Noojin Boys’ Basketball — Row 1: R.

Not only were they still reflecting on their state championship last season, but also they were setting their sights on this year’s state competition. For the most critical point of the season was at the state finals; here they proved that they were a competitive team and that last year was not a fluke. Coach Tonkovich stated, “There are many intangibles that go into winning a state title and you also have many tangibles that you can control. We felt if we worked hard, stayed healthy, and swam well that we would be competitive.” And competitve the Indian team was. The Indian strategy for the season was to work hard until after sectionals and then taper-down. “We wanted to swim well ex¬ hausted and then that would prove to us that we could swim well when rested,” comment¬ ed Rodney Kirk, 11. So, the Indians swam double practices, even triples during Christ¬ mas break to help better prepare them for sectionals and state. When conference rolled around, the Indian team once again showed their dominance over their conference rivals, especially Munster. One disappointing point of conference was the injury sustained by Senior Jim Kick. While taking his warm-up laps. Kick hit the edge of the deck with his foot while completing a flip turn, resulting in a gash in his foot that effected his latter perfor¬ mances. “I feel that when I injured my foot it really hurt my training for state since I was out of the water for over a week,” comment¬ ed Kick. But Kick’s performances were still beneficial to the team. At sectionals, the Indians still showed their competitiveness and dominance, even with¬ out resting and shaving-down like other teams had already done. For the next two weeks the team began to taper their prac¬ tices and became more rested for the upcom¬ ing state competition. Upon arriving at state, the team shaved-down and creative hair cuts were designed. This helped to pull the team even closer together. At the state competition, the team’s matu¬ rity led them to their pleasing fourth place finish. The major swimming forces behind the Indian team were seniors Bryon Angerman, Kevin Baker, Jim Kick, and Steve Nieting; juniors Kevin Bailey, Kevin Hindson, Rodney Kirk; and sophomores John Barker and Dan Leibrand; and LC diving sensations Mark Booth, 10, and Craig Goble, 12. The one aspect of this team that is not visible in their record is the team’s spirit and unity. When one team member is swimming, he is always cheered on by his teammates. That is the key to the Indians success; they are supportive of one another. “I always know they are there supporting me. It really helps me to push myself because it makes me think of the team, too,” said Dan Leibrand, 10 . While this team may seem to have fallen short of expectations of some of the swim¬ mers, they know that they all did their best and gave it 110%. As Tonkovich said, “We lose as a team; we win as a team.” This team won in showing other teams in the state that LC was a strong swimming force. Boys’ Swimming — Row 1: N. Bieker, S. Wozniak. B.

Training with more experienced athletes perpared these people for a Varsity season. However, in some sports, JV Squads were a whole separate event. Playing under the shadow of a sectional¬ winning Varsity team, JV boys’ basketball pulled through the season with a 13-7 record. “I think we had a pretty decent season,” said Coach Joe Fox. The JV girls’ basketball also faired ex¬ tremely well, finishing off the year with a 12-2 record. “We played to our ability. Our schedule was tough, but we managed to fight off our competition, ” said Kathy Huls, 10.

JV Winter 149 INDIANS f _ TITLE The 1987-88 wrestling Indians looked bound for state when the Varsity snatched their first four victories from their first four opponents. They were then dealt their first loss by the Calumet Warriors by a score of 9 to 54. The rest of the season, LC took turns winning every other meet with victories over Munster, Lowell, and Griffith for a final sea¬ son record of 7 wins and 4 losses. “I was most pleased, this season, with the improvement of the youngsters on our team,” stated Coach Emerick. One young¬ ster Mickey King, 10, who wrestled Varsity with a record of 17-12 stated, “It’s not any different wrestling an older person because he is going to be your size if he is in your weight class.” Although the 87-88 season was not perfect, Mark Blaze, 11, has no com¬ plaints with the team, ‘‘I don’t think the team had any disappointments this season.” Coach Emerick was slightly disappointed, “I was not pleased with our conference tourna¬ ment,” in which the Indians placed fifth. The season was building to a climatic end¬ ing when the Indians defeated the Highland Trojans, Munster Mustangs and Lew Wallace Hornets and were crowned IHSAA Sectional champs and sent the remaining nine wres¬ tlers, out of 13, to Regionals. The Regionals were different, nine wrestlers were quickly reduced to three; those being senior Mark Klausman 124, juniors Dave Engle 135 and Matt Ashcraft 145, all advancing to Semi- State. They were stopped at Semi-State, and Wrestler just might experience the hardest workouts of any LC athletes.

Their singlets were hung in the closet to await the opening of the next season. Their heads were hung high as the Indians cap¬ tured a Sectional title which was last accom¬ plished in ’84. Outstanding achievement goes to Mark Blaze for capturing a conference title, he was the only wrestler to accomplish this at LC this year. The Regional qualifiers were seniors Mark Klausman and Mike Boggess, juniors Mark Blaze, Dave Engle, Matt Ashcraft and Jim Fross; and sophomores Bob Smith, Mick¬ ey King and Scott Redington. In the eyes of Coach Emerick he sees Jim Fross, Dave En¬ gle and Mickey King as the most improved wrestlers in 87-88. Emerick stated, “As freshmen I saw Bob Smith, Mickey King, Scott Redington, Bill Suminski, who are soph¬ omores now, and freshmen Danny Hibbard as great future wrestlers.” by Dave Hein 5carEbaard LC THEM 36 Gary Wirt 34 59 Hammond Clark 9 72 Horace Mann 6 42 E.C.

Bod TEAM TO STATE Despite practicing only once a week throughout the season, the LC Hockey Club finished with a winning season record and placed second in the state tournament. “Having more practices would give us more time to develop our skills and knowl¬ edge of the game,” stated JV MVP Dennis Cooper. The Indians opened up the season strong by winning their first seven games. However, they found themselves caught in a slump dur¬ ing regular season but managed to come through during the state tournament. LC stacked their opening line-up with many experienced seniors of which will be lost greatly the following season. Leading the seniors in varsity squad was the Finnish ex¬ change student Pete Markkula who was LC’s leading scorer and was awarded to the All- State and All-Star teams. Rookie of the Year, and MVP honors. “Overall, I was happy with my perfor¬ mance this season,” commented Markkula. “The beginning of the season was not that great, but when I started trusting myself a little bit more during the state tournament and in the last games I started playing much better.” Other top players who added much strength towards the team and who were awarded to the Uliana All-Star team were: Curt Sunderlin, 12, and E.J. Farmer, 11, who was also honored as LC’s top defensive play¬ er. Although the Indians experienced much success this season, many team members be¬ lieved their disappointment was placing sec¬ ond rather than first in the state meet and also being knocked out of the Uliana playoffs in overtime by Bishop Noll. “We had a fairly good season, but we had the talent to win more and place better in the playoffs,” explained Farmer. With the fact that the Hockey Team is a self-funded sport and are only able to prac¬ tice once a week, many members believed that it hindered the overall performance. “Practicing only once a week hurt us this season,” stated Sunderlin. “Everybody knows the more you practice, the better you get. The school doesn’t give us much support either.” by Michael Weis O ' Hockey 153 GOLF TEAMS TO TEE OFF As the Girls’ Golf Team came back for their second season, they also came back with more dedication, determination, and team work, as did the Boys’ Golf Team. The girls proved to themselves, their new coach. Chuck Northam, and others, that they could keep the self-funded sport alive and winning for the season. The girls accomplish¬ ed what they needed to make the team an even better and more victorious one. They set an all time low of 178 for nine holes. From last year’s record, which was 5-6, to this year’s record, which was 11-2, there was something there that really made the team strive. Nancy Northam, 12 said, “I golfed to my full potential this year, although placing fifth in Sectionals was a big disappointment. We did not advance to Regionals, but Erica Sudac advanced to Regionals as an individual.” Northam also walked away with honors from the Chesterton match, as Erica Sudac, 11, and Robin Williamson, 12, did the same against Crown Point, the match in which the team broke the school record. Sudac re¬ ceived yet another honor in the Andrean match, as did Michelle Baert, 12. Coach Northam stated, “The girls had an outstanding season with their record 11-2, which was unexpected for a team just formed one year earlier.” The boys also accomplished yet another victorious season. They had a very impres¬ sive team, including players with determina¬ tion and skill, and a coach that helped them and guided them to become a better team. Their first match against Merrillville and Hanover was a victorious one, scoring 167, to place first over Merrillville’s 178. Eric Deedrick, 12, also received honors as medal¬ ist in the match. With a look of concentration Michelle Baert, 12, stands and stares with eyes of concern to view the landing of the previously hit ball. After defeating Munster and Calumet, the team went on to place first in the High¬ land Lowell match. Jason Miller, 12, stated, “We played well in this conference match, but not up to our full potential.” Honors as medalists were given to Miller in the Mun¬ ster Calumet match, with a score of 38, and Jeff Justak, 11, received honors in the High¬ land Lowell match. The season wasn’t over yet. The team went on to place second in Conference against Calumet and Highland, with High¬ land defeating them. All the team could do now, was look back at all of the victorious matches and look ahead to end the season, and even farther to next season. Justak stat¬ ed, “Maybe next year we will regain last ye¬ ar’s Conference title, but I am happy overall with our performance. We did have a good season!” T G t « GIRLS’ GOLF-Row 1: M Markovich, C Canale, N Gurevitz, E. Sudac; Row 2: M Baert. B Hanson, R Williamson, N.

INDIANS TO THE END As the LC soccer season came to a close, so did the hopes and dreams of a successful season. Disappointed from not complying enough wins to qualify them to the playoffs, the Indians made their way through a hard fought season record of 4-6-2 and a fifth place finish in conference. When the Indians entered regular season play, a lot was expected of this team of much potential. t4 I think we had a better team than what our record shows,” commented senior Mark Pekez, Pekez led the team in many aspects. Pekez, along with others such as Mike Robb, 12, and Brent Paris, 12, conduct¬ ed an attack that became bothersome to most opponents. Pekez added, “If I did more scoring and took more shots it might have helped.” Opening the season off on the right step, the Indians defeated the Gavit Gladia¬ tors by a convincing score of 11-1. But soon the Indians were to be denied by Andrean who held the Indians scoreless 2-0.

Coach Chuck Pollen com¬ mented, “I think our strongest point was our senior leadership, but we did have a lot of underclass help.” Pollen’s team of fighters had a lot of ail¬ ments that disabled the team in perfor¬ mance. “We’ve got the toughest conference in the state,” added Pollen, “with teams such as last year’s state champs Munster and this year’s Portage.” Besides the competition, in¬ juries were a frequent thorn in the Indian’s side. “We lost our varsity goalie, Steve Smith, to a broken arm early in the season and that hurt us,” added Pollen. by Chuck Noojin Row 1: S.

However, LC faced their Munster rivals in the finals and were fatefully crushed by the Mustangs. “I’m sure everyone agrees with me when I say that having Gary (Dean) as a coach makes us want to work harder,’’ added Ma¬ son. “With his guidance, we found out that we can accomplish anything through hard work.

Doing great distances or struggling through Indian runs, the team practiced hours a day on the track and on back road hills. Although runners found themselves competing under the shad ow of a previous conference sectional cham¬ pion team, boys’ track faired extremely well, ending the year with a second place at con¬ ference along with several regional qualifiers. Distance events remained a strength. Ju¬ nior John Kopeck took first place in the 3200m run at conference with a time of 10.00.0. He was followed by teammate Joel Hoffman, 11, who achieved fourth with a time of 10.14.4. Hoffman said, “Running events were strong. We really didn’t have goals just to go out and run well.’’ Placing second at conference with a 4.33.1, Rich Bochnowski, 10, continuously scored points in the 1600m run. Although field events seemed to be a weak link to the team, they still managed to cap¬ ture a few points. Kevin Graham, at confer¬ ence, showed one of his best jumps by pole- vaulting 11 ft. and placing third. When sprinting came to mind so did Kevin- Nolbertowicz, 12. He excelled in the 400m run and the 200m dash to which he scored first in at conference with a 22.7. Relays were also a strength and included runners like Don Bohney and senior Paul Gray and Preston Nice, 11. Gray also scored points in hurdles for the team. Keeping up with strict rules and practices, the team endured some ups and downs but always kept a hopeful attitude. In the end they pulled through with success. As one team member said, “It was a very frustrating year but in the end I guess we had some great achievements.’’ by Lisa Pasko Boys’ Track — Row 2: R Vonderhaar, K Fraser, S Eckhardt, D Plikuhn, R Bonner.

The Indians started out placing lower than last year’s sea¬ son. Without the experience of Senior MVP runners Tracy Schumann and Dawn Gelon, it proved to be a tad bit harder to accomplish first place all the time. As Coach Tom Clark pushed the girls harder to win, they began to improve. The Calumet Griffith meet proved to the team and Coach Clark that they could do it; they could place first. All it took was tough practices, team work, determination, and the guidance of dedicated Coach Clark. There was yet another upset that had to be overcome. It was the injuries of many girls on the team. Beth Coon, 10, stated, “When I hurt my knee, it felt like I couldn’t help the team out; I could only watch them try and do their best. Yet I wanted to be part of the M McCoy team. The team didn’t run too good this year, but we did what we really could.” The girls’ victories were mainly achieved with the endurance and help of co-captains Elaine McDermott and Laura Pacholski. Amy George, 10, stated, “Elaine and Laura seemed to be our strong points, but we (the team) added greatly to those strong points and with that, we got the track team that really did their best. But maybe not as good as last season, but we were still a team.” More team “strong points” were Amy Reid and Gail Doner, who was injured in the beginning of the season, for distance. Laura Logan, Kathy Huls, and Leann Jackowski were a help to the team in field events.

TEAM ITS SKILLS Baseball: the national pastime. Here at LC, the pastime was blown to full intensity again this year. Naturally, there were some high and low points; the highs were a record of wins and losses; lows were each time the team played Munster and was completely shut out. Of course, individual team memories dif¬ fered on the season’s best game. Rick Flor- kiewicz, 12, felt his best game was when “ ... we played Calumet in what I thought was the best game of the season; we won 3 -2 ... this was one of the few times we played an entire game the way we were capable of.” On the other hand, Tom Mavity, 12, said, “Our best game was when our team was down 4-0 and we came back to win 5-4 against Griffith.” Coach Terry Tillett agreed this was the best game, but not the one thing in particular he remembered about this year’s team. He said his proudest memory is that, “13 of my top 20 players are on the Honor Roll,” a memory to be proud of. A unanimous agreement came for the most memorable moment this past year. In Mavity’s words, “Coach Tillett was ejected from the game. Florkiewicz and myself coached the team to victory.” Florkiewicz agreed, adding, “We won the game 5-4 on 3 home runs. It was our best team effort of the year.” High points of the season were the selec¬ tion of both Mavity and Joel Gillen, 11, to First Team All-Conference. Jason Christ¬ man, 12, Florkiewicz, Rick, and Mike Bog- gess, 11, were selected to Second Team All- Conference. Honorable Mentions went to Mark Evans, 12, and Brian Sivulich, 12. Tillett, in summary, will remember this past season as “a roller coaster — good one inning, bad the next.” Rich agreed and add¬ ed, “overall we had fun.” by Dave DeVries Firing a possible strike, junior Wayne Collins helps to aid his team with another strike out. ■ JT r ji ffP 164 Baseball Row 1: J.

At the beginning of the year, high expecta¬ tions were floating around the locker room. “My personal goals included playing every team competitively ’ commented senior Mindy Sikora. Although the expectations Team unity played an important role in the Indians attack. Meetings at the mound to discuss the game plan were frequent in 1988. K Sikora were high, so was the competition. The Lady Indians’ toughest competitors included the Highland Trojans and Merrillville Pirates. Another goal of the Indians was, “To make team unity a big part of our success,” added Dinges. Returning from last years LSC champ team were 10 players. What the Indians slacked off in, they made up in experience. Pitching strength came from first year start¬ ers Robin Elliot, 12, and Dinges. Coach Tom Linger said that the attitudes of the girls played an important role, “The girls are very positive, unselfish and willing to do whatever they are told to do,” commented Linger. In 1988, the secret to the Indians’ success was their distinctive ability to balance the team. We established a solid program early in the year with good batting, defense and our pitching staff to keep a well balanced team,” added Linger. by Dave Hein K Sikora As wild and crazy as it may be. sophomore Sandi Dinges Slowly extending her lead, sophomore Nicole Jamrose uses her unique style of pitching to get the job done for attempts to increase her chances of stealing second the Lady Indians. base.

Being out of the game with a sprained ankle or pulled muscle was very difficult on athletes who knew they could be an asset to the team. Laura Logan, 10, said, “I’m going to run whether I’m injured or not because it’s impor¬ tant to me, and I can’t take the time out of practice.” Most coaches had their team spend at least 15 minutes stretching before any practice es¬ pecially in sports such as track or basketball where nonstop running always bears the threat of shin splints. A constant supply of tape, gauze, and second skin seemed natural to most coaches and players. Matt Harper, 10, said, ”1 stretch my back, hips, and shoulders before a golf tourney so I don’t pull anything.” Overcoming an injury required much de¬ termination. Training extra hard to make up for lost time and to keep in as good of shape as the other athletes, these players came back with extra mental force. A proper diet was usually suggested. Fill¬ ing up with carbohydrates, such as spaghetti or eggs, before a big meet, some players also indulged on temporary sugar energy, as in candy bars, so they could feel their best. by Ljm Pasko 168 Injuries Stretching the legs and the back were important to run¬ ners.

Clubs reach out to students and the com¬ munity. Dances, projects, and activities were often provided by clubs to allow students to become involved with school-related events. Many students often helped or participated in different activities like Homecoming. Student Government Association (SGA) and Key Club provided gifts and aid for mem¬ bers of the community. SGA sponsored a pro¬ gram to collect Christmas presents for area children, and Key Club sponsored a food drive for three local churches. Clubs offered students a way to meet new people and to have fun. Some students learned the sense of leadership while organiz¬ ing activities. Learning new skills for future careers was also a part of the clubs scene. Members in Office Education Association competed in business competitions.

STUDENTS IN ACADEMICS Though athletes seem to lead the more popular life, the academic scholars are also very prominent in LC’s atmosphere. For ath¬ letes, Varsity letters can be awarded for ex¬ cellence in their respective sport. For high academic marks an academic letter is awarded. But not all academic achievements are based solely on one’s performance in the classroom. The Academic Decathalon Team and Academic Superbowl Team consist of members willing to go beyond the classroom to learn. Kathy Csoka, 11, commented, “For Decathalon we took a trip to Dayton, Ohio, to further our learning of aeronautical things for the competition. It made all the time spent not seem so difficult.” Another academic goal of juniors and sen¬ iors was to be accepted into the National Honor Society (NHS). Ms. Rosemarie Ihnat, NHS sponsor, stated, “We not only look for students with good grades, but that demon¬ strate leadership, character and service.” All in all, students at LC are awarded let¬ ters and recognition for their academic abili¬ ties as well as their athletic abilities. Both serve as stepping stones in the students’ path to college and future career goals. “The foundations of our future are being strengthened today,” stated Jeff Bennett, 12 . by Jennifer Palko Academic 175 Out of funds?? Not possible for LC’s class cabinets—or was it?? The class cabinets spent most of their time trying to raise money through various fund raisers. Junior Class Cabinet sponsor, Ms. Jill Kindt, stated, “We spend much time planning fund raisers to earn money.” Other sponsors agreed; the juniors have always done so for the seniors. Cabinet members spent much time with fundraisers so that they could afford a suc¬ cessful Prom, a memorable graduation cere¬ mony including decorations, and a class gift along with Homecoming decorations. Howev¬ er, they tried to do more things as a group. “We’re planning more field trips in the fu¬ ture,” stated Ms. Kasch, sponsor of the fresh- Creativity and hard work must be used in designing floats for the Homecoming parade Wendee Ross, 11, adds last minute final touches to the junior float. “We are planning more field trips in the tu- ture so the club will have some fun time to¬ gether, too,” said Ms. Kasch, sponsor of the Freshman Class Cabinet. men. Field trips for fun was not on the minds of the freshmen cabinet members as they swept all the honors at football and basketball Homecoming festivities. “It was a good start—winning everything,” admitted Aman¬ da Diekman, freshmen president.

Cox usu¬ ally placed well in the many debates she partici¬ pated in. 178 Performing Arts _ PERFORMING STUDENTS After the applause dies and the last piece of scenery is taken down, members of LC Thespian troop 2536 are left with lasting friendships and experience to last a lifetime. Even though the proud feeling of accom¬ plishment felt right after the show has dimin¬ ished, the unity between some will last for¬ ever. Knowing that you participated in a stage production is a great feeling and for many the well-earned title of a Thespian can be an even greater sign of achievement. But earning this membership is no easy task. To become a member of the Thespians an actor or technician must attain a total of 15 points. One point is accumulated from 20-30 hours of long hard work. According to Ms. Angie Lowe, one of the sponsors of Thespians, a student cannot just go and sit there for 20 hours to become one. They are expected to put on a lot of hard work to¬ wards the final product. LC has been involved in this internation¬ ally known organization for the past 22 years, with approximately 40 new members being inducted each year. Each Thespian re¬ main s a member for the duration of their lifetime. Thespian member, Patti Biesen, 11, sum¬ med up the feeling of the Thespian members when she remarked, “I feel it is a great A ■ M 1 stmima honor. Theatre is something I never thought 1 would be involved in, but it has been a very pleasant surprise in my life. Also, I think it’s great to be involved in something so national.” Students on the Speech and Debate Team competed with schools for various awards. The members of the Speech Team competed both individually and as a school. Individual members at LC did well, but as a school, the team fell short due to the lack of interest and members joining the club. Most members of the Speech Team ag¬ reed the competitions were the most rewar¬ ding experience. On competition day mem¬ bers left at 6:00 a.m. to various schools. An average meet involved 200-500 students. Most were invitationals represented by 15 or more schools. Each student competed in three rounds. The top three people in each category proceeded to finals. Ms. Pat Maman was the sponsor of the team. She stated, “I feel there is a lot of tal¬ ent at LC, and if more students would seek information about the team, we too would be known as a winning team. Presently we are known for some very talented individual team members.” Students felt the experience they received on the Speech Team has helped them excel in other related areas. Dara Cox, 10, expla¬ ined, “Theater Arts is a large part of my life, and the Speech Team has helped me a lot with my acting. You don’t have to try out for it. All you have to do is sign up. It’s excellent in helping develop acting and public skills.” Gayle Wozniewski, 9, stated, “I think it’s a really good learning experience. I like the way the judges offer their comments after competitions. Win, lose, or draw, you know you’ve done your best.” by Crystal Yednak, Gillie Jones, and Christy Burgess Performing Arts 179 STUDENTS SADD —Row 1: M Lawson. A Zion, J. Barnett, D. Mack, H.

N-teens members devoted much time to the planning and preparation of Winter For¬ mal. They met during club periods to discuss such topics as Winter Formal court, and fund¬ raisers to help them afford hall rental, deco¬ rations, refreshments, and a disc jockey. N-teens officers and representatives mod¬ eled dresses from A Formal Affair, a bridal shop in Crown Point, for the fellow club mem¬ bers. The purpose of the show was to give members an idea of the year’s fashions and styles. Students Against Drunk Driving (SADD) had a display that really attracted a lot of attention. SADD arranged to have a coffin in the foyer, complete with body, as an attempt to scare students out of driving drunk. Mr. Pollen, sponsor of SADD stated, “The pur¬ pose of the coffin was to show students that drunk driving is the number one killer of teen¬ agers today. I thought it would be a good idea to impact on the student body, before Home¬ coming, that drinking and driving can kill you or someone you love.” When asked what he would say to the student body if there was ever a day in which MPC —Row 1; B Miller, J.

Life is so sweet, yet it can be so short, you can die at 18. Friends don’t let friends drive drunk!” Medical Professions Club (MPC) was cre¬ ated to inform interested students with more information about different medical fields. Guest speakers from various medical profes¬ sions visited members during club periods. MPC annually sponsored a blood drive with the Red Cross. Interested students who were 18 years of age contributed to the group’s cause. Club members made sure do¬ nators were relaxed before their blood was taken by the nurse or Red Cross representa¬ tive. Much preparation went in to the organi¬ zation to the charitable event. Members also took field trips to hospitals and donated monies to the school nurse’s of¬ fice. For many years LC has tried to get a form of R.O.T.C. (Reserve Officer Training Corps) but not enough students were interested. Lowell High School extended its hand to LC students who were interested. Two students have joined, more students were hoped to join in the future. “R.O.T.C. is designed for students with plans to pursue a military career,” comment¬ ed Don Shropshire, 11. “I have always wanted to go into the Air Force, now I’m training to be an officer be¬ fore I get into it,” said Cri Shonert, 12. After graduation R.O.T.C. was just an¬ other way to learn about the career or job students were getting into “Last summer I took R.O.T.C. at Camp Atterbury, it was just like boot camp with everything, but it gave me a lot of discipline,” said Cri Shonert. Not all the class is book work, the class also takes flights on UH-1 helicopters and C- 135 carrier planes while the advance classes take trips to Air Force bases and Air Force museum in Ohio. by Kelly Kleinaman.

B Hand Seriousness was not always a part of SGA meetings during activity period SGA members take time out to relax and have fun. 182 Service Clubs often provide many activities and projects for students. Student Government Association (SGA) is involved with organizing activities such as Homecoming and Fresh¬ men Orientation for school, a Christmas pre¬ sent drive for area children, and Woodfield Mall and Great America trips for its own members. Student Government members worked together to organize the annual pa¬ rade and dance associated with the football Homecoming game. SGA was also in charge of the presentation of the king and queen for both the football and basketball Homecom¬ ing. Members of SGA volunteered to be guides for Freshmen Orientation to direct in¬ coming freshmen through the school and to provide information about the different classes. Student Government sponsored a Christ¬ mas present drive to collect presents for chil¬ dren in the community. Second hour teachers collected money, then one or two classmates used the money to buy presents for a specific child assigned to the class by SGA. Many SGA members looked forward to the Wood- field Mall and Great America trips to relax and have fun. “This year SGA was unfortu¬ nately a small group, but one that got a lot accomplished. I was lucky that I was the sec¬ retary, because I got to do the Homecoming announcements during the halftime at the game. I was so nervous, but in the end it was real fun,” sait Tatjana Marich, 11. Many students who planned to enter the business field joined Office Education Associ¬ ation (OEA). Several OEA members compet ed in a regional competition that consisted of many business categories such as accounting skills, job interviews, and computerized ac¬ counting. Students who received top awards continued to compete in Indianapolis for the state competition, and some even competed in Louisville, Kentucky, for the national com¬ petition. “Being in OEA will help me in the future. I was in the job interview category in competition and that will help me later when I am applying for a job,” said Rhonda Strelec, 11 . Some students preferred the activities ac¬ companied with being a member of Key Club. Key Club sponsored a food drive for three churches in Lake County. Second hour classes competed to collect the most food and to win the prize of six dozen donuts for the class. Along with the honors history classes. Key Club worked on the Gold Star Honor Roll Book. Students researched men from Lake County who fought and died in the Viet¬ nam conflict. In order to honor these men, students gathered information about the ca¬ sualties, and then they interviewed friends or relatives of these men. “Being in Key Club makes the members feel that they are an important part of the community and not just typical high school students,” said Jen Palko, 11 . Key Club, SGA, and OEA provided extra¬ curricular activities and learning for students with different interests. by Shelley Fear SGA —Row 1: C. McCrary, M Welch, M Sakaguchi, B Coon, T Waechter. M.

Service 183 ATHLETIC IN CLUBS Letterwinners, sponsored by Mr. Tom Linger, was a club that recognized athletes who achieved at least one varsity letter in a sport. Once two varsity letters were earned, a jacket could be purchased through the club. Members were required to defend their letter in order to remain a member of the club. “Becoming a member is a reasonable goal for an athlete to have,” Tina Keilman, 10, said. The Letterwinners participated in the 70-mile bike ride and a steak fry. Mat maids helped with the wrestling team. “We keep the scores, take stats, decorate lockers, and are mental supporters for the wrestlers, ” said a junior mat maid, Ann Kiral. The mat maids held a car wash in the spring and sold candy as fundraisers. Mr. Bob Emerick, wrestling coach, and Dr. Janet Emerick were the sponsors. Pep Club, sponsored by Ms. Kathy Ar- buckle, was a club that supported the athlet¬ ic teams and helped to maintain school spirit. Lettergirls were 12 girls who were mem¬ bers of Pep Club. To become a lettergirl, a girl had to participate in Pep Club for at least one year and could then be nominated to be a lettergirl for the next year. The lettergirls wore skirts and sweaters that spelled out LC INDIANS and helped create a spirited atmo¬ sphere at athletic games. by Wendy Berger LETTERGIRLS—Row 1: J. Meyers. D. Adams, N. Nava. C.

The Spanish Club officers were Kevin Baker, Julie Zatarski, and Mary Stamos. Baker was the club’s presi¬ dent. All of the clubs participated in activities that would help the students learn more about that particular language background and culture. The German Club went to two restaurants and bowling. The Spanish Club went bowling, on a horseback riding trip, and to a restaurant. The spirit of competition was never higher than when the German and Spanish clubs met in a bowling competition. All of the clubs took part in the annual foreign language club picnic. The only down side of each language club was the lack of participation. Nancy Sie¬ ben, 11, German Club social coordinator, said, “I think that most students really don’t get involved in their club. The clubs would be a lot more fun if people would get involved.” Baker said, “The club was fun. It should have more members.” by Brian Aspan French Club members went to see a French play in Chicago Sophomores Laura Logan and Michele Bland talk about the play during intermission.

Restauri stat¬ ed, “The best thing about being a bookstore aid fourth hour is that I was able to choose whatever lunch I wanted. Also, if I didn’t get my homework done, Ms. Hunter would write me a pass so I could go to the library and study.” Ms. Hunter stated, “We used to go on trips, but recently there hasn’t been enough money so we don’t go.’’ Restauri and Justak added that being an aid for Ms. Hunt¬ er was really great. Out of all the times they were aids, bookstore was their favorite. The Home-Ec Club had about 25 members who sold jewelry and bought things for the home-ec classrooms with the money they made. At the beginning of the year, they went to Shakey’s Pizza just to get to know one another. Other events included a shop¬ ping trip and a Mother’s Day dinner. The club was sponsored by Ms. Johnston with Bonnie Kistler, president; Beth Bannister, vice-presi¬ dent; Jennifer Sanger, secretary; and Shan¬ non Woodworth, treasurer.

Student interests and happenings were published through the Scout, and Quiver captured the year on pa per through copy and photos. The Rune gave students an opportunity to express them¬ selves through original creations. The school newspaper was written, de¬ signed, and published solely by students. Dis¬ tributed bi-monthly, it covered the school news, merits, sports and features of student life. Under leadership of Editor-in-Chief, Dawn Clapperton, 12, future journalists toiled away, writing stories, designing page layouts and counting pages for classroom dis¬ tribution. “Scout is a class that demands responsibil¬ ity,” remarked News Editor Deanna Csomo, 11. “If you don’t do the work and don’t meet the deadlines, you not only hurt yourself; you bring down both the staff and the paper. But the end result is worth the pressure.” Clapperton was enthusiastic about the Scout. “I was really happy to be chosen as Editor-in-Chief. The work involved in being an Editor-in-Chief is a lot, but it was worth every minute of pain I went through. It wasn’t all bad, though. It’s terrific experience for a career in journalism.” The Rune remained busy as ever, meeting twice a week after school once production was under way. The Rune was LC’s literary magazine, which featured creative offerings from students. Drawings, short stories, and poems were judged upon submission to staff members or new sponsor Ms. Judy Kopchik.

Assistant Editor, Tra¬ cy Barsic, 11, commented, “We had some very talented poets, artists, and authors, sub¬ mit their work this year.” Quiver also slaved away, rushing to meet various deadlines throughout the year. Lay¬ outs had to be designed, copy written, photos taken and cropped. Co-editors Jennifer Palko, 11, and Shelley Fear, 11, kept the staff in line making sure the work was done. “Being my first year on staff, it was an extra challenge being the co-editor remi¬ nisced Palko. “If it wasn’t hard enough get¬ ting my pages down, it was twice as hard helping other staff members finish their lay¬ outs and type sheets. Being on yearbook was a really unique experience.” Fear agreed, “Quiver is challenging.

The LC Marching Band is only one aspect of the talented music department at LC. The choir is also a very popular, talented group. Many students each year joined choir to ex¬ press themselves through their singing abiliti¬ es and to take part in performing with an en¬ tire group. Mr. Michael Lewis, the choral director, kept the groups together and conducted the class. Students who were interested in singing with a group for the first time joined the Jr. Treble Choir. The result at the end of the year was for the students to learn to sight read music and to be able to pick up on a song without having ever heard it played. When students completed this class, they graduated to Sr. Treble Choir or Concert Choir depending on their singing abilities. Sr. Treble Choir was similar to Jr. Treble Choir. The students in this class expanded their music knowledge by conquering more difficult music pieces. They remained in Sr. Treble Choir or were chosen to join Concert Choir the following year. Boys entering chorus for the first time join¬ ed Varsity Choir. The result of this class was singing technique and music reading, along with learning all types of music arrangem¬ ents. Best voices graduated to Concert Choir. Concert Choir was the largest chorus; it consisted of the best voices from the other three choruses. Concert choir had three con¬ certs: Fall, Christmas, and Spring. There were also a variety of performances and con¬ certs held throughout the year. Rhonda Widlowski, 12, stated, ' Tm in Concert Choir and it is a lot of fun. The best part is performing. We work hard and it re¬ ally seems to pay off when after your perfor¬ mance you hear all the applause; the feeling is just unexplainable. Competing in various choral concerts was also fun, because you get the opportunity to hear other choirs and then let them hear you and hear how hard you’ve worked.” by Amy Kish and Jennifer Moe 192 C hoir A Pushckor Hours of singing go into one concert.

Because of ensemble, counterpoints, and concert choir, Lake Cen¬ tral voices were heard by many people. Ensemble was a singing and dancing group that consisted of all girls. Members of ensemble stayed after school to practice about three hours a week. Ensemble per¬ formed special concerts for different meet¬ ings and dinners. Counterpoints also sang and danced while a few membes played musical instruments. Members practiced about four hours a week after school. Counterpoints performed at dif¬ ferent locations like Teibel’s Restaurant and the East Chicago Library. Concert choir was the highest choir and it mainly consisted of juniors and seniors with the best voices. “Choir is a fun class! We always work hard to get our music perfect, but it never gets boring,” said Elli Reichelt, 11. The choir performed at Union Station in Indianapolis, Century Mall, and the Choir Festival at Griffith High School. All three choral groups competed in con¬ tests like the State Choir Contest or the St. Louis Six Flag Competition. “I’ve been in choir for four years. I’ve had a lot of fun! The trips we go on are interesting and choir is an experience. I’ll never forget,” said Patty Damron, 12. Choir was an important part of high school for some students.

Choir 195 MARCHING PERFORMS For the LC Band, 1987-88 could have been dubbed “The Year of Change.” New director Mr. Scott L. Taube took over the course of the year. “I wasn’t really nervous,” Taube reminisced about greeting the band for the first time. “I was just self-conscious, following someone like Mr. Jordan. All I knew was that they had a rich tradition here at LC and a very good marching band.” Times were tough for everyone early in the CENTRALETTES — Row 1: Sandy Ceniceros, Lisa Weidner, Sandy Finnegan, Kathy Woldt; Row 2: Yvette Venable. Tara Bickham, Carrie Canale, Christa Opyt, Amy Boske, Valerie Venable, Beth Mills, Lynn Koiod ziej, Michelle Bugajski; Row 3: Narcine Sidock, Jenny year, as new teaching methods were intro¬ duced and teacher-student relationships were established. But through all the changes and rough moments, the band kept their win¬ ning tradition alive and made it a year to remember. The band began its year with the summer marching band, which performed in area pa¬ rades. Following parade season, the Centra- lettes left for Valparaiso University for drill team camp. While there, they won trophies for home routine and precision dance. They then topped it all off by winning the sweep- stakes award and the five star award (given to the corp most looked up to by other schools). Head Centralettes Sandy Finnegan, 12, Lisa Weidner, 12, Sandy Ceniceros, 11, and Kathy Woldt, 11, won the Captains award, enabling them to travel to New York City and participate in the Macy’s Thanksgiv¬ ing Day Parade.

Michele Vozar, Daphne Glover. Jennifer Biissmer The most dramatic changes for the band occured in the fall with the football marching season. During former director Mr. Doug Jor¬ dan’s reign, the band performed the same half-time show for the entire season, learning and practicing it over a period of weeks. Un¬ der Taube, the band was now required to learn a new show for every game. Since learning several shows made it difficult to memorize music, the band also adapted to the use of music lyres. As a result of the changes, football crowds were entertained to shows with themes such as classic television tunes and a salute to the 200th birthday of the U.S. Constitution. The band also per¬ formed a marching concert which featured music from their various shows. When the I.S.S.M.A. District field show competition came around, the band was awarded a First Division. But, when they pro¬ gressed on to regionals, they were given a Second Division. “I thought the group per¬ formed very well and things were fine,” said Taube. “My concern was that the group per¬ form up to its potential.” Although the band experienced a setback, it did not keep them down. The band in¬ dulged in a flurry of activities, which included Pep Band, vigorous fundraising for their trip to Orlando, Florida, for the Festivals of Music in April and practicing for their first Christ¬ mas concert. And while the band rehearsed, the Centralette corp sweated it out practicing their basketball halftime dance routines. In¬ stead of dancing to tunes played by the band, the Centralettes performed to popular songs from the radio and tapes. “The basketball season went well over all, and was enjoyed Courtesy of P Loretuen SENIORS — Row 1: Dawn DeFratus, Kim Graham, Jan Barb Besch.

Ceniceros was very proud of the group. “I’m very proud of them, that we achieved our goals. I’m glad that we went out there and proved that we’re number one.” The awards ceremony proved to be a joy¬ ous one for LC, in more ways than one. Taube summed up the trip this way: “The best thing that happened on the trip was the group became one — not individuals, but a band that had dedication and pride to achieve their best . .. and they did.” One week after their return from Florida, the band headed to Portage to compete for the first time ever in the I.S.S.M.A. District Symphony Contest. For the contest the band learned a new piece in four days for their opening number. The contest was a success. The band was awarded a first division. At the end of the year, the band performed one last spring concert and had a banquet to cap off a turbulent but triumphant year. Senior Dawn DeFratus felt positive about the year in general. “Everything was new this year to everybody. But some of the changes were really positive, especially in the concert area. I’m glad the trip to Orlando was so successful.” by Karen Talarek FRESHMEN - Row 1: Shirley Choute, Heather Popio- lek. Lesley Likens; Row 2: Julie Adkinson.

Karen Talarek, 11, a band mem¬ ber, kept track of the events that occurred throughout the course of the trip. With her permission, the following excerpt is a pre¬ sentation of band memories. Monday, April 4 — Arrived at LC, 8:30 a.m. Had a quick symphonic rehearsal be¬ fore loading the charter buses and U-Haul with luggage and equipment. After a few minor “squirmishes” over seats (seniors in back), departed for sunny Florida at 10:00 a m. Spent night on the buses. Tuesday, April 5 — 4:30 a.m. Awoken in southern Georgia for bus problems. Bus 1 ran over a piece of sheet metal, breaking the oil can. Loaded on Bus 2 and taken to nearby truck stop for five hours until re¬ pairs made. Left stop at 10:15 a.m., trav¬ eled to Cape Canaveral, FA. Checked in at Econo Lodge, beachside. Swam at Co¬ coa Beach; ate dinner at Galaxy Station (minor disturbance caused by girls in band over cute male employee), free time after¬ ward. Wednesday, April 6 — Traveled to destination Orlando, checked in at Colony Plaza Hotel. Air conditioning broke in Bus 2; passengers sweated it out. Had pool- side symphonic rehearsal mid-morning; then journeyed to Disney World. Spent afternoon, evening there. Sunburns start¬ ed to emerge. Arrived back at hotel 11:30 p.m. Thursday, April 7 — Practiced all day. Had parade rehearsal in hotel parking lot, sectionals and symphonic rehearsal in room adjacent to hotel restaurant. Just enough free time to eat, swim, and re-fry sunburns. Lights out early; last minute items taken care of for performance next day. Friday, April 8 — Woke up early, ate breakfast at Hotel and traveled to Evans Maynard High School for symphonic per¬ formance. Performed in high school audi¬ torium at 9:30 a.m., stayed and watched other bands until noon. General good feel¬ ings and comments about performance. Had afternoon marching practice (sun¬ burns now a major factor in pain, many students blistered). Late afternoon free, then back to Evans Maynard to watch field show competiton. Incident occurred after¬ ward when three intoxicated area teens followed buses to hotel; chaperones han¬ dled situation. No girls allowed out of hotel grounds without male escort. Saturday. April 9 — Parade perfor¬ mance at 10:00 a.m. Great feelings about performance once again; spirits soared. Centralettes performed dance routine at Evans Maynard at 12:30; band members proved their spirit and support. Thoughts turned to the awards presentation at Sea World that evening. Returned to hotel, free time for afternoon. Arrived at Sea World 5:00, had barbecue dinner, saw Shamu show and ski show featuring the Ski Pirates. Awards ceremony at 9:45; spirits ran high. Centralettes won their contests; band won their division in parade and fourth in symphony. Disappointed over not winning overall parade, but still pleased with results. Sunday, April 10 — Sadly loaded equipment and packed; took last-minute swims or lay-out sessions. Said farewells to the clouding skies and left for Indiana mid¬ afternoon. Started to rain for first time on trip before Georgia border. Spent night on bus. Monday, April 11 — Arrived back at LC with police and fire escort at twelve noon. Bandsmen ran around the halls find¬ ing friends and showing off tans (burns). Trip hailed a succes by all. 198 Band Band members experienced transportation problems on their way to Florida. The lobby at a nearby truck stop served as a resting place while the bus was being ser viced. The band gathered for a picture in the Florida sunshine just after their symphony concert. The band received excellent rating for their performance. Todd Erdelac, 11. shows his band spirit by decorating the bus windows. Erdelac wanted Florida to know the minute LC arrived. The Centralettes show off their talent as they form LC during the pom competition. They swept the honors as they captured top ratings in their competition. (X SPIRIT Most athletes seasons last but a few months, but for the LC cheerleaders, their season lasts from the first day of school until the last boys’ basketball game. Then the pro¬ cess begins to repeat itself. Try-outs were held for cheerleading on April 14, 1987. Eight Varsity and eight JV cheerleaders were chosen. Along with being chosen a cheerleader, one exceptional girl, Suzanne Rose, 11, was chosen to be this year’s Indian mascot. Rose stated, “I was so excited that I had made Varsity, that I could hardly believe that I was chosen to be mas¬ cot. It’s such an honor—I just couldn’t be¬ lieve it happened to me.” From that time on, the cheerleaders began practicing for cheerleading camp. In May try¬ outs were held for in-coming freshmen. Nine girls were chosen; four girls for “A” squad, four girls for ”B” squad, and one alternate. At the end of July, the three squads trav¬ eled to Concordia College in Michigan to at¬ tend cheerleading camp. For four days, they learned cheers, stunts, and dances. “It was a lot of work, but it really was a lot of fun. But I was still glad when it was over,” said Bonnie Besch, 9. The wait began for the first varsity football game. Neither rain nor snow could harness the cheerleaders spirit, and before they knew it, football season had come and gone. The practices began for basketball season. GUYS, GUY CHEERLEADERS-Row 1: P Morley. E. Welch. C. Moncado; Row 2: R. Davies, D. Horgash, M Pekez With basketball season approaching, the Varsity cheerleaders had a new task on hand. That task was to choose the guy cheerleaders for basketball season. The guys had to be willing to attend practices and really work hard. ‘in the beginning I thought it would be real easy. I later discovered that if we didn’t take it seriously, someone could really get hurt,” commented Chirs Moncado, 12. Mark Pekez, 12, added, ‘‘Seriousness was the key. We learned real fast that we couldn’t laugh when building a pyramid. That was the most important rule.” The guys worked hard with the Varsity cheerleaders to make the squad the best that it could be. The season started off on a shaky foot, though. “We really got nervous at the game against West Side. The pyramid wasn’t up and they continued the game. The pyra¬ mid collapsed. Everyone blamed one an¬ other. That’s when we really pulled togeth¬ er.” said Ron Davies, 12. Throughout the year, the squads were there to cheer on the Indians. Their burning spirit was seen in the eyes of the teams and fans. by Jennifer Palko 200 Cheerleading The product of many hour of practice. Finding the right combination of people to build a mount was not always easy Through trial and error, a mount would be built and then suddenly fall. But the cheerleaders stuck with it, and the end result was the right combination and a stunning mount. Partner work is one of the main focuses for having the guy cheerleaders during basketball season. Elli Reichelt, 11, and Dan Horgash, 12. were teamed up at the begin ning of the season and never looked back. After many hours of long practices, they acquired the trust in one another needed to work together D Lacomb FRESHMAN CHEERLEADERS-Row 1: K Cosmo, T. Apostle, C. Siurek, B Besch; Row 2: E. Freeland.

ADDITIONAL PRESENTED The last thing that most students had on their minds during the summer was school. Yet, some students either chose or had to take summer school. “I really needed to take typing and I couldn’t fit it in my schedule, so I fig¬ ured that summer school was the only way to take it,” said Vasko Geor- giefski, 10. Beside the usual academic down-to- earth courses, some electives were of¬ fered including graphics and auto shop. “I took graphics because it interested me,” commented Mark Scheidt, 11. Also, new elective courses were added to the list such as speech, music theory, summer choir, and art. New and inter¬ esting facts and concepts were learned in the added classes. For instance, Mr. Lewis’ music theory class partially con¬ sisted of learning to play all of the ma¬ jor scales on the piano. Ms. Shirley Hewlett’s speech class learned about gourmet cooking and other hobbies during visual aide speeches in class. Students who took art class sharpened their skills, and choral students per¬ formed the first summer choir concert at LC. Attending summer school was not as bad as some students thought it might be. “The teachers didn’t grade as hard, and the atmosphere seemed more re¬ laxed,” stated Bobbi Jo Kleinaman, 10 . by Suzy Kirby and Shelley Fear 204 Summer school C.

Chris Moncado, a senior, puts together electron, proton, and neutron models as a part of an experiment. IN SCIENCE Physical science, a freshman science class, dealt mainly with the theory of mat¬ ter, nuclear molecules, electrons, and pro¬ tons. The labs varied including making mobi les out of miscellaneous materials. “We did a lab concerning series and paral¬ lel circuits. We had to arrange three six-volt bulbs in a series circuit and then we had to put three more six-volt bulbs into a parallel circuit. Then we had to dis¬ tribute power to each circuit with a six-volt battery,” described Pam Tatum, 9. Physical science was also said to be like most any other class. “We learned about science, did some interesting labs, and had fun times, too,” explained Jay Krager, 9. Biology didn’t just merely deal with bookwork either. The low stench of for¬ maldehyde permeated most A-Hall class¬ rooms. The formaldehyde was used to preserve all of the dead creatures that were waiting to be dissected. Dan Schon- ert, 10, explained, “Watching all of the girls’ faces quiver in my lab group when I made the incision was probably the funni¬ est thing I’ve seen.” Dissecting something of interest also brought out some excite¬ ment. “The most interesting thing I’ve done in biology was dissecting a starfish. The crayfish, grasshopper, and the worm were just too gross to have interest in,” Jeanine Korem, 10, said. Also, an honors science class offered was chemistry. The chemistry classes ex¬ plored the worlds of the periodic table and different elements to electron configura¬ tion. The most exciting things varied from sticking gum under desks to actually seeing how electricity worked. Elaine McDermott, 11, explained the most inter¬ esting thing done were the labs, by Marianne Swanson _ Science 207 MASTERING SKILLS All LC students are required to take four years of English. English is a divi¬ ded department; therefore, each stu¬ dent must complete each level of En¬ glish before he could move onto the next one. Regular English, for grades 9,10,11 dealt with all of the basic English skills, such as a review of nouns and verbs, and an in-depth look at verbals. One semester consisted of the study of grammar and the other dealt with liter¬ ature. Juniors, however focused on American literature. Both semesters of senior English dealt with western literature and composition. Honors English was taken by stu¬ dents who wished to have a more in¬ tense study of vocabulary, composi¬ tion, and literature. Teacher recom¬ mendation as well as previous good grades were required for admittance. Creative writing was an elective of¬ fered for those who wished to improve their creative writing skills. The class did many papers utilizing their newly acquired skills. A new program called Mastery Learning was started in the English de¬ partment. It was offered to freshman and sophomores. The theory behind this idea was the majority of students in a class could learn, and master, the material they had been taught, but that all students could not learn it, and master it, at the same pace. Therefore, a student did not move on to a second unit before he has achieved and de¬ monstrated an understanding of the previous unit. All English classes read a novel from the type of literature that they were K. Sikor Jeff Mastey intently reads a story from modem American literature. Juniors were taught the his¬ tory of Literature in the U.S. Several students take test in C-wtng. Halls were filled with make up tests as the weather got warmer studying. Honors English as well as Mastery Learning English classes were required to write a term paper. Sopho¬ more classes wrote about important events that happened on the day they were born, juniors read short stories and described a certain theme that was followed in the author’s works, while seniors wrote about an artist that they admire. Kathy Woldt stated that she really enjoyed En¬ glish. “It was fun because it was my major and I tried hard to earn my grade.” Since English classes were required to be taken all four years, many stu¬ dents made the best of them and learn¬ ed as much as they could about their language and about literature from around the world. by Jennifer Moe and Amy Kish English 209 Foreign language classes were po¬ pularly enrolled courses that were of¬ fered to students. Those offered to stu¬ dents were Spanish, German, and French. Students who planned to at¬ tend college took a foreign language because most colleges and universities require at least two years of a language to graduate. “It is easier to get into college if you take a language while you’re still in high school,” said Crystal Felton, 10. On the other hand, some students took a foreign language because of a desire to learn a new language. Know¬ ing a second language may be an ad¬ vantage for those interested in travel¬ ing or pursuing a career which may require overseas travel. One junior stated that she took two different for¬ eign languages. “My first two years here I took a language for college prep¬ aration purposes. I then switched to a different language just for the fun of it.” While in class students learned grammar, vocabulary, and cultural background as well. However, some teachers liked to make the class as in¬ teresting as possible and occasionally get away from the dull “memorize this; memorize that.” A few French classes constructed Thanksgiving cards while Spanish and German classes made Christmas cards. Spanish students per¬ formed skits for fellow classmates while speaking Spanish. “Right now the classes are hard, but I think it will be worth it in the future,” commented one students. by Cindy Deakin K Sikora Steve Lane. 11. and Rachel Deakin, 11, perform their skit in Spanish in front of the class. 210 Foreign languages Dorene Kruspe, 11, practice her German skills In Spanish class students do a skit about going to in a workbook while listening to a German tape the beach Skits helped students leam to speak Listening skills were stressed. the language clearly. {French is a pretty language.

STAYING HEALTHY Health and physical education were two classes that were required for a student to graduate. Many take these classes their freshman year to avoid taking them later. A full year of gym as well as one semester of health were to be taken by a student during his four years of high school. One half of a year of gym was spent in the swimming pool by alternating gym to swimming every six weeks. Girls spent their time in gym class by playing such sports as tennis, volley¬ ball, aerobics, and an introduction to basketball. The girls also practiced track, worked with weights, and practi¬ ced their tumbling skills. The boys used their gym time to play baseball, lift weights, and run track. Patricia Lopez, 9, said, “I liked gym class a lot. It was fun learning to play all the different games. We also got to learn how to use the weight machines.” All swimming classes learned the basic swim strokes: freestyle, backstro¬ ke, and breaststroke. They sometimes had a free period on Fridays and they played water polo or tried out some dives on the diving board. Health was another subject that had to be taken although it was only for a semester. Students learned about per¬ sonal hygiene, diseases, and the bone and muscle structure. They were also taught about drugs and alcohol and the problems associated with them. “I though that Health class was very interesting. We discussed contempo¬ rary problems like drinking, drugs, and smoking. I learned a lot from this class,” said Mark Sakaguchi, 10. Becky Kick, 10, said ‘‘Health class was important for students because they learned about their bodies. The class kept you aware of dangers to your health.” For students who wished to pursue their knowledge in the health field, there was the substance and chemical abuse class. It involved an in-depth study of the dangers linked to abuse of both alcohol and drugs. Kristin Scott, 12, commented, ‘‘We had many dis¬ cussions on the different kinds of drugs and how they can harm you. I took the class because I planned to major in health in college.” Although the classes were required many students enjoyed them and found them interesting, by Amy Kish and Jennifer Moe Several girls take a break from their tennis game during gym class. They went outside for gym as the weather warmed. The LC Math Department offered many levels of math courses from freshman math to calculus. Algebra I classes learned about the basic concepts in the wide world of ma¬ thematics. Brian Bogel, 10, said that his Algebra I class was one of particu¬ lar interest. “My teacher, Mrs. Kasch, made the class interesting by giving dis¬ cussions on math topics,” stated Bogel. Algebra II was more than just a revi¬ ew of its predecessor. It placed empha¬ sis on the solving of equations as well as factoring and graphing abstract equati¬ ons. For those who had not always paid attention in their previous classes. Al¬ gebra II sometimes became confusing. Rich Shunk, 12, said, “If you did not understand a unit, it was harder to get back into the swing of things.” Mary Beth James, 11, works hard on an analyti¬ cal geometry problem. This class was offered as a semester course. Tina Simon explains an algebra problem to her friend during a free period. Many students used lunch hours to study Calculus was a difficult Honors class that provided an introduction to the first year of college calculus. Many stu¬ dents took this class to prepare them for their college majors. Calculus classes took many quizzes and tests us¬ ing their accumulated knowledg e selves from their previous math courses. “I plan on going into engineer¬ ing in college, so 1 needed calculus to prepare me,” said Dave LaTulip, 12. Advanced topics in mathematics was for those students who wished to have a high math background for col¬ lege. Joe Dudy, 12, said. ‘‘I thought advanced topics was pretty easy and I regret that it was not very challenging for me.” Geometry was offered in basic, regu¬ lar, and honors. All classes used the same book, but worked at different paces. All classes learned to prove dif¬ ferent geometric theorems and also re¬ ceived an introduction to trigonometry. Trigonometry and Analytical Geom¬ etry were both offered as semester courses. Trigonometry classes learned many different identities to use in sol¬ ving equations while analytical geom¬ etry students graphed such odd shapes as hearts, flower petals, and bubbles. Sheri Ketelaar, 11, took both classes and said. “Although the occasion may never arise when I need to use my knowledge, it was interesting to learn.” Students opinions varied greatly about the different levels of math classes available at LC. While some students liked math, others did not. Whether it was geometry, algebra, or basic math, one thing that students a- greed on was that having some kind of math background was important for college. Paula Betts, 11, said “I cannot really get into a college without one.” by Jennifer Moe and Amy Kish 214 Math Dave Grabske proudly displays his passing analyti¬ cal geometry quiz His class took a qui2 nearly every day.

Math 215 IN BUSINESS With the wide variety of business openings, many students found them¬ selves leaning towards a career in a business-related field. Many classes were offered for students who wanted to enrich their skills for such a field. One of the many classes offered was office machines. Working on a dicta¬ phone, calculating problems on various adding machings, and learning how to use a filing system were many of the different activities completed through¬ out the semester course. The course’s subject matter consisted of doing exer¬ cises in various booklets and complet¬ ing tests afterwards. “Office machines has been very beneficial for me. It has taught me the basic skills needed to work in a business office,” stated Tammy Mose, 12. Activities dealing with taxes, pay¬ roll, and various money situations were all a part of calculating machines. “Working at your own pace, you com¬ plete financial problems that exist with¬ in a business,” stated Tricia Richwine, 11. Working on the electronic display, full key, and also the ten key machines, all being types of calculators, were skills mastered in the course. “Calcu¬ lating machines has given me exper¬ iences that I will need to know to enter my future business career,” said Wen¬ dy McMillen (Ross), 11. Learning the basics of an executive secretary, studen ts in the two-hour sec¬ retarial lab learned to use the dicta¬ phone and to transcribe letters. Manag¬ ing the loads of work and making sure it was correct, students mastered skills on many types of business machines while also dealing with the tension that might be present in a real company. Secretarial lab gave students an educa¬ tion in the business world and also pre¬ pared them for the many jobs a secre¬ tary must be capable of performing. Tomorrow’s future proprietors and 216 Business accountants experienced the tedious task of adding large amounts without making mistakes. Kellean Barron, 10, said, “The thing I like least about my accounting class is if you make a mis¬ take, you have to go through all your work again.” Completing record packets involving the whole accounting cycle was the main assignment for accounting. Matt Welch, 10, stated, “I have done one large project involving the accounting records of a certain company called the Courtyard, which was a raquetball club.” Accounting dealt mainly with math¬ ematics, office jobs, and crediting. Many students took accounting to keep themselves from confusion if ever faced with small business records. Bar¬ ron added, “I took the class just to see what it was like. Maybe if I choose to become an accountant, I can test out of certain classes at college.” Another class offered which helped expand a student’s knowledge of his business and citizen’s rights was busi¬ ness law. It explained contracts, sales, insurance, and employment fields. Louis Carravetta, 12, said, “Business law teaches students about married life, how to rent an apartment, or how to buy a house.” Another objective for business law was criminology. Students went to court, saw the movie, “Helter Skel¬ ter,” and completed an in-depth report on the Charles Manson murders. Car¬ ravetta added, “When we went to court we ended up seeing the last quar¬ ter of a drunk driving case and then preceeded on to the second day of a burglary case. All in all, I think business law is well worth it.” Through business-related classes, students were enabled to experience a piece of the business world that they might enter later in life. By adding numbers and interpreting laws, the stu¬ dents involved took a step towards their future goals in the rough-and- tough world of business. by Michelle Stiltner, Lisa Pasko, and Jennifer Palko m K Sfcora K S on i y Teachers are not always right In her Accounting II class.

Business 217 Finding relatives of Vietnam veter¬ ans, taking care of an egg for a week and writing to sailors in the Persian Gulf were only a few of the projects experienced by the students in the So¬ cial Studies Department. Through nu¬ merous activities, students learned to explore the human mind, relive the na¬ tion’s history and discover what makes the government tick. Mr. Tom Clark’s U.S. History class savored a taste of the American Revolution when he shot off a 1760 Charlottesville rifle. “Stu¬ dents thought the gun was very inter¬ esting,’’ Clark commented. “They could actually visualize that time peri¬ od in history.” The economics class invested in the stock market. Each student pretended to put 100 shares into three compan¬ ies; students then followed their com¬ pany’s progress in the newspaper re¬ ports. A month later they tried to deter¬ mine why the market behaved the way it did. In psychology and sociology class, students studied the behavior of the hu¬ man race and probed into the mind. The sociology class took on the egg pro¬ ject. Students were required to carry around an egg in a basket everywhere they went for a week. The project was designed to teach responsibility. Dur¬ ing egg baby week, students watched the new parents protecting their young. Trying to protect their young was a big fear of many parents. The fear of having one’s egg kidnapped or smashed on the floor hung heavy. Tra¬ cey Drake, 12, stated “I was always suspicious!” Mr. Chuck Pollen said the project was quite successful. Fewer eggs were killed this year than ever before, and the number of parents were higher. Mr. Clark’s history and world affairs classes took notice of the tense situa¬ tion in the Persian Gulf. In response, they wrote to sailors there with surpris¬ ing results. Deanna Cosmo, 11, said, “I was really surprised that these sailors took time out to write to complete strangers.” One sailor even sent an Arab T-shirt, a Middle-Eastern 7-up can and a bottle of perfume to Elli Rei- chelt, 11. “I think the project is fun and a great way to meet people. Also, we can learn a lot about the Gulf situation through their letters,” added Reichelt. Through all the various projects that the Social Studies Department has de¬ veloped, it has helped to further the education of many students. They did not just learn from the text written in a book; they learned through exper¬ iences. . „ - . by Karen Talarek Egg baby rock?t Creativity was a plus in receiv¬ ing a good grade on one’s egg baby project.

Social Studies 219 VOCATIONAL A ' _ CLASSES Many students believed that vocational classes were considered fun courses. Yet, in reality, these classes prepared the stu¬ dents to go out into the manual labor work field. For instance, in auto shop, the students were taught everything to know about a car, from quick tune-ups to overhauls. The engine was covered completely along with oil changes, mufflers, filters, brakes, and transmissions. “The class interested me because when I get my own car, I want to be able to fix it,” stated Marianne Swanson, 11. Mr. Milby’s machine shop taught stu¬ dents how to run various machines used for cutting metal and welding. Like auto shop, they repaired school equipment or teachers’ things. This year’s class won first in state competition for creative met¬ alwork. “I was very proud of them. They worked hard and it paid off,” Mr. Milby said of the competition. In wood shop, creativity is a must. Stu¬ den t projects varied to include home fur¬ niture and games. Students learned filing, sanding, sawing, and constructing. Drafting classes were for students who planned a career in architecture. In this class, the students learned to design al¬ most anything, but perfectionism was a requirement. Print shop, along with auto shop and other vocational classes, offered hands-on experience. Students printed the Scout, Rune and other literature for the school. Though electronics was not offered as a three-hour vocational class, it is still consi¬ dered a part of the vocational courses. In this class, everything about electricity was learned. When projects were not done correctly, there was the possibility, they might blow up, so concentration was al¬ ways needed, by: Suzy Kirby and Cri Schonert A 220 Vocational LEARNING THE Award winner Frank Nlewiadowski shows work Steven Benko, 12, a Hammond Career Center on his metal project and reports for his class student, is making pastry in his class.

Sometimes people will call and order hundreds of things at a time, stated Bob Botello, 12. The class makes ev¬ erything from simple donuts to exotic cakes. The major requirements were being good in math, being able to write small, and having good cursive. A few minor requirements were no hairspray, nail polish, cologne, or droopy ear¬ rings. Hair had to be worn in a hair met and pants and ft shirts were a must. Most of the people taking this class were preparing to be a chef or open a restaurant. “After four years of colle¬ ge, I will probably open a restaurant. In college, you will learn almost every¬ thing to know about foods and cooking. Taking the pastry class is a good start,” Botello said of his future plans, by Suzy Kirby Making a chair takes time and hard work, as wood shop student George Williams finds out.

ARTISTIC EXPRESSED The Fine and Applied Arts Depart¬ ment at LC consisted of classes such as arts and crafts, Jewelry MI, and many levels of painting and drawing. Jewelry classes worked on many dif¬ ferent kinds of jewelry. Students in Jewelry I made silver bracelets, cop¬ per rings, and silver rings while the more advanced students of Jewelry II designed and produced many pieces of jewelry from all kinds of metals. They 222 Arts did copper coiling, faucing rings, and cutting the stones which were put into rings made by the students. Arts and crafts students made kites; they both designed and painted them. The class then flew their kites outside on the football field. Other projects were latch hook rugs and coil rings. Painting and drawing was also offer¬ ed as an art class in three levels. While working in this class students learned ed sketching techniques, acrylic paint¬ ing. and water color painting. They also tie-dyed, made collages, and were taught the concepts of surrealism and realism. The classs also went on a field trip to see the Post-Impressionist Pain¬ ters display. One unique addition to the art room was the spray-painted walls. The art classes painted their graffiti on the walls to give the room an “artsy” look. The Art Department also participa¬ ted in several art competitions throughout the state. They attended the National Scholastic Art Competi¬ tion in Sou th Bend. Raymond Thorton received two Honorable Mentions for his efforts. At the Science and Arts Fair at Purdue, LC did well and Bob Berg- ner won second place. The classes also attended the Northern Indiana Art As¬ sociation High School Show. Lake Cen¬ tral brought back four winners. Sara Orin felt that the arts classes “put your creativity in a box and labeled it while Pam Simone said, “This class lets you use your imagi¬ nation.’ Ron Jackowski. 12, thought that his art class was “really cool. You could let your imagination run wild.” by Kim Hambright LEARNING PAYS Hands-on experience was what the Home-Ec classes were all about. Some LC students took advantage of the classes because they were to be “so- called” easy classes, but others used the time to their full benefit. “This class showed me that there was a lot more than doing housework. There are paying bills, fixing minor injuries, and how to handle various sticky situ¬ ations,” said Lisa Banter, 9. Foods classes were offered as Foods I, II and II, as well as Gourmet Food, for students wishing to pursue a career in that field. Foods I-III cooked a variety of delicacies form salads to pastas. One student felt that, “It was sure great getting credit for your appetite.” Gourmet foods cooked much more involved foods such as casseroles and sou’ffles. “Gourmet foods class helped me to decide whether or not I wanted to go the chef’s school. Since I enrolled in the class, I am now looking forward Don Shropshire samples his gourmet foods feast Gourmet foods was offered as an advanced study of food. .1 +A 224 Home-Re to chef’s school,” commented Steve Benko, 12. Sewing classes were filled quickly by those students who planned on sewing careers of for those who simply wished to make their own clothes, different from their friends. Sewing I was given as a semester course and gave each student the basic knowledge needed to sew. Sewing II, also a semester class the students projects were shirts and mor e difficult jackets. “There are different areas one could choose for a career,” said Lisa Banter, 11, “such as design¬ ing, fashion merchandising, making patterns, seamstressing, and tailoring. There was such a big field to choose from I haven’t decided what I want to do.” Home nursing and management were special classes where students learned to handle their household ex¬ penses and to plan their own weddings. “This class showed me there was a lot more than doing housework. There are paying bills, fixing minor injuries, and how to handle various sticky situa¬ tions,” saidy Lisa James, 9. by Chris Schonert Liz Feges shows off her jacket with excitement This project took many weeks to complete.

K Stkora STUDENTS The Arts gave many students at LC the chance to g et credit for doing some¬ thing they liked to do or had interest in. Photojournalism was just one of the fine and applied art classes offered. Photojournalism, like intro-journal¬ ism, Quiver, Scout, speech, and dra¬ matics, was a yearly course with one credit given per semester. Beginning photojournalism helped many students expand their horizons with a camera as the year went on. “I liked learning how to express my feelings through each picture I took.” stated Denise La- combe, 12. Making a greeting card with one of their pictures was just one of the projects assigned. Knowing the camera and its limitations were a must to succeed in the course. Students, who had a creative imagi¬ nation and the determination, time, and knack to write, took intro-journal¬ ism. After intro-journalism many stu¬ dents went on to Quiver, the yearbook staff. Journalism gave students time to think and write about happenings around the school or the world that pos¬ sibly needed to be explained or brought out for conversational issues. The intro-journalism classes had various writing projects such as writing sport stories, features, in-depth stories, editorials, and their own articles. They also were assigned cut and paste pro¬ jects to teach them the difference be¬ tween different types of stories and how to lay out a yearbook page. Quiver, the yearbook staff, once again ran themselves ragged as they tried to get the yearbook out on time. “There was never a dull moment be¬ cause there were always deadlines to meet, layouts to draw, and stories to be written,” said Lisa Pasko, 10. The stu¬ dents who took Quiver needed a lot of time, dedication, and hard work to get the job done. Scout, the newspaper staff, gave past intro-journalism students a chance to write for the student body. There were many strict deadlines to be met in order to get the newspaper out every other Friday, and those deadlines were met. The “Letter to the Editor” was a new approach to opinions in the paper. The paper contained stories from opin¬ ions to in-depths to sports. Being shy or quiet, some students were not always willing to attend speech class. There was a lot of re¬ search that had to be done to prepare for a speech. “I find speech exciting because you get to present what you like and learn more about other peo¬ ple,” said Jay Grisafi, 12. Student who could express a variety of feelings and entertain all sorts of people chose Dramatics I, then went on to Dramatics II. The drama classes studed theatrical history, script read¬ ing, and acting out parts of scripts. The Drama I students perform while the Drama II students perform and direct. “I took the class because I like to ex¬ press myself through words and ac¬ tions,” commented Kasandra Monk, 11. Some other entertaining projects were learning how to fence and panto¬ mime. The students that were involved in the fine and applied arts did just that. They applied themselves to something they enjoyed to do. by Julia Borgia K.

However, other students simply waited until morning, and then they rushed to the ticket office in hopes that the concert had not been sold out. While waiting in line, many students often feared the thought that when they final¬ ly reached the window the clerk would dis¬ play the sold out sign. Hopes of receiving a ticket did not end with the announcement of the final ticket be¬ ing sold. Students often attempted to win tickets from one of the radio stations, but the chances of winning were usually low. Sometimes when a group of friends would go to the movie theater, upon arrival they would discover that the movie they intended on seeing was already sold out. but there was usually an alternate movie or time. Unlike movies when a concert was sold out most students’ thoughts were aimed toward the idea “better luck next year!” by Shelley Fear r Open Mon - Sat 7 am 3 am Closed Sundays THE PINES TAP Good Food and Drinks RICH and JOANNE TOKARZ 7349 Calumet Ave (219)931-1583 Hammond.

The cancer affected the use of his left arm and left leg, which made it difficult for him to walk and keep his balance. During the last two years he had been through a total of eight surgeries, and doctors continued to help drain fluids from his brain. LC’s efforts helped Denny’s parents cope with the situa¬ tion and tough times. Students sponsored a dance, held April 22 at the St. John Commu¬ nity Center. The dance raised money for his expenses and was a time for shared feelings and love for him and his family, LC also sponsored a 50 cent day for Den¬ ny. During a two-day period, teachers and personnel raised $2800. The total amount of money raised from the dance, 50-cent day, and personal donations was near $4,000. During the past year Denny was in the hos¬ pital for five weeks. During this period he re¬ ceived chemotherapy treatments and five weeks of radiation. At home his mother ar¬ ranged his room like a hospital. The room was set up with an air mattress hospital bed, wheel chair, and gifts he had received. Denny’s parents and friends were amazed that after eight surgeries he was still alert and doing well and continued to show improve¬ ment steadily.

ROSE 192 3 Dr. Pepper ___ Outrageous! 253 Marked by scandal, corruption, and finan¬ cial disaster, the year left Americans with noteworthy events to remember. Memories ranged from humorous tales of fallen celebri¬ ties to disastrous drops in the economy to in¬ spiring stories of heros and those they saved. Lieutenant Colonel Oliver North left his mark on history after telling the Supreme Court he was simply following orders when questioned about his involvement in th Iran- Contra Affair. Accused of selling arms to the rebels in Nicaragua, he defended his actions on the nationally televised hearings. Ameri¬ cans stayed tuned to their televisions for sev¬ eral weeks as “Ollie” attempted to justify the ordeal. No conclusion was drawn as to whether North had participated in the secret deal, and the hearings with North were ended. Young Jessica McClure offered one story with a happy ending to the news so often fill¬ ed with scandel. After falling into a well be¬ hind her home, the two-year-old waited pati¬ ently as rescuers tried hour after hour to de¬ vise a plan to remove her from the well while trying to prevent it from caving in. Many companies lent equipment as volunteers workers poured in. Emergency works were successful, and the country breathed a sign of relief. McClure was rushed o the hospital and many offers arrived for books and movies about her ordeal. Oliver North captured the country’s atten¬ tion during the Iran-Contra hearings. Jim Bakker was one of the several celebri¬ ties caught in an extra marital affair. This television evangelist confessed to an affair with Jessica Hahn, which left thim without his famous ministry, the PTL Club. Bakker’s wife, Tammy Faye, also made a name fo herself in 1987. After the scandal caused by her husband, Tammy Faye charm¬ ed the country with her outlandish shopping sprees. She than shocked fans by checking into a drug rehabilitation center. Gary Hart provided the country with yet another story of romantic affairs. His presi¬ dential compaign was destroyed after the Washington Post published the story of his re¬ lationship with television actress and model Gary Hart’s romantic involvement with Donna Rice for ced him to end his campaign for the presidency. He was one of the Democratic candidates to drop out. Donna Rice. Hart announced he would not run for President, would run, and then, be¬ cause of lack of money, once again canceled his campaign. This was also the year of Olympics in Cal¬ gary. Americans demonstrated their quality through participants, but not hrough awards. Figure skaters Brian Boitana and Debbie Thomas left a strong impression in the people of their native country. One of the most controversial events of the year was the sending of American troops to the Persian Gulf. Marines were sent with U.S. ships to protect Iraq’s oil from the country of Iran. Several bombings resulted as the U.S. Marines tried to expose mines in the Gulf placed there by both Iran and Iraq. The United States was involved in much internatioal conflict as well as troubles within. Americans pulled together to improve the country. They cried when McClure was pull¬ ed from the well and laughed when Jim Bak¬ ker was asked to leave his television ministry. The AIDS virus terrified both young and old, but there came new hope every time a cure was almost found. Most of all, 1987 and 1988 was a time filled with memories and hope for a better world. By Kim Hambright titAn 254 Memories Black Monday occurred on October 19 after the Dow Jones industrial stock average dropped 508 points. It caused the loss of $500 billion from U.S. stocks. Oliver North was discovered to be an important part of the plan to fund the rebels in Nicaragua His hearing caused him to become a celebrity Jim and Tammy Faye Bakker. TV Evangelists, were for¬ ced to resign after Jim Bakker ' s affairs and Tammy Fay¬ e’s drug problem were made public. In an attempt to ensure safe passage for oil carriers in the Persian Gulf, the U.S. sent ships to protect them from Iran. Memories 255 ONE YEAR! We started this year on an unsure foot, but thanks to the quality of our staff we quickly became surer of ourselves. In the beginning, it was rough; being juniors and first year staff members made the job of co¬ editorship doubly challenging. But as the deadlines crept closer we fell in the groove of the staff. That first deadline was rough; 16 pages of color seemed impossible, but we did it. Kristi,how could we have made the dead¬ lines without you? You always gave 110% when shooting pictures and it shows. The color section looks “outrageous” — be proud. Charity, no matter what we needed or how busy you were at the time, you always offered your help. That takes a truly dedi¬ cated staffer and we really do appreciate all the work you did for us this year. Then, of course, there is our yearbook K Stkora adviser, Shirley Hewlett. You made us feel like we were special and we needed that. Though we didn’t always see eye to eye, you gave us a chance and really trusted us and we hope that you never regret that. When you look at this book, remember us. Best of luck Kim and Lisa next year. If you keep your creativity level where it is now, your book will be great!
